Type H – Machine Calibration
This calibration is done with a reference mass.
Proceed as follows:
1. Get access to the torque sensor through the
hinged front door by removing 2 screws.
Remove the torque sensor
lever
, by
removing the M6 screw
2. Make sure no forces are applied to the
torque sensor.
Click on the
Calibrate Offset
button. The
Terminal measure
value should be near to
zero now.
3. Weight the sensor
support block
and note the weight (normally it is stamped in gram
on the piece, for example 110,6g). Place it on sensor.
4. Weight another
mass
, or use a calibrated one (at least 5kg, maximum 10 kg). Place it
on the sensor adapter piece and see if is not touching anywhere else.
5. Insert the total mass (a calibration
mass) in the
Weight
textbox
(for example
0.110Kg + 10Kg =
10.110Kg
). The
equivalent torque value will be displayed in
the Torque textbox. Compare it to the
Terminal measure
value. See Figure 15
6. As required, click on the
Calibrate Gain
button. The displayed value of
Torque
textbox should be close now to the value
Terminal measure
.
7. The procedure may be repeated if
necessary. Click on
Save
in case the values
are all OK. The calculated offset and gain
are saved now and used for the further
measurements. You may
Exit
without saving the new calibration values.
8. Restore torque sensor lever with its M6 screw and close the access door to normal
condition with the 2 M6 screws.
