DEVELOPMENT OF THE CAPABILITY TO CALIBRATE LOAD CELLS IN TENSION AT THE LEVEL 0F 2 MN USING THE PYRAMIDAL METHOD

Marisa Ferraz Figueira Pereira, Walter Link, Antonio Carlos Garcia
  • Abstract:
    The purpose of this paper is to present the results of the development, at the Mechanical Metrology Laboratory – IPT, the capability to calibrate load cells until 2 MN in tension using the pyramidal method. This type of assembly in normally applied for compression. The goal is achieve an uncertainty of 0,05%.
