Description
The
loading device uses a screw jack with a fine thread and 75 mm travel to
apply load through a proving ring. The ring deflection causes a digital
dial gauge to indicate the load in decaNewtons because a innovation
compensates for the variations of the ring. The gauge also has a zero
setting switch so all the effects of self weight and initial set up of
an experiment can be eliminated. The ring is designed to be used in
compression but a loading yoke is provided to enable tension loads to be
applied. Not only is the ring usable for HI-PLAN experiments to avoid
using cast iron weights, but it is even more adaptable for student
projects where large and accurate loads in any direction are required..
