Development and Metrological Evaluation of an Industrial Force Transducer
Tóm tắt
This work regarding the design and development of EN 24-grade steel-based force transducer has been reported along with its metrological features in line with ISO 376:2011 standard. The force transducer has been designed on the basis of analytical and computational methodology and validated through experimental observations. The force transducer presents ease of design-cum-manufacturing and practically viable alternative to the commercial force transducers with uncertainty of measurement up to 0.10% in its working range.
