Vortex -dV Operating Manual
Connect the Test Stand to a PC (VectorPro™ Users Only)
If you are using VectorPro software, connect the USB B port, located on the test stand,
to a PC using cable part no. 351-093.
Important!
Please install VectorPro software on your desired PC before
connecting the test stand to your computer. Once the software is installed
and the stand is connected, the stand will show as connected. This is shown
in the image to the left.
Cable Management
It is essential that no cables interfere with the controls or any moving parts. Failure to
do so could lead to injury or damage to the equipment.
Attaching Grips and Fixtures
The most commonly-used upper fixture used is the 100 mm upper fixing plate with a
diameter capacity of 10 mm to 78 mm. This is fixed to the adaptor on the torque
transducer using a 2.5 mm Allen key to secure the four countersunk screws supplied.
The fixture can also be quickly removed using the two grub screws in the adapter,
accessed through slots in the sides of the fixing plate, as shown below.
The most commonly-used lower fixture is the 188 mm diameter lower fixing plate with
a diameter capacity of 10 mm to 190 mm. This is fixed to the Vortex
-dV
spindle using a
2.5 mm Allen key to secure the four countersunk screws supplied.
A range of other torque testing fixtures is available, including saddle plates that help
support samples in the fixing plates, longer grip fingers, mandrels, and chucks.
Important!
Take care not to apply excess torque on the transducer when securing the
fixtures.
