Frequently asked questions about mechanical dynamometers
What is a mechanical dynamometer?
A mechanical dynamometer is a measuring device used to check and control the torque or force applied to a mechanical component. Unlike digital force gauges, it operates without electronics and is often used for its robustness and reliability.
Why choose a mechanical dynamometer rather than a digital model?
A mechanical dynamometer is ideal for demanding environments where electronics could be affected (dust, humidity, extreme temperature). It is also appreciated for its durability and lack of need for a power supply.
How accurate is a mechanical dynamometer?
Accuracy depends on the model, but mechanical force gauges generally offer excellent measurement repeatability, with a tolerance of around ±1% to ±2% of full scale.
What are mechanical dynamometers used for?
They are widely used in industry, aerospace, automotive, quality control and any application requiring precise control of torque or applied force.
How does a mechanical dynamometer work?
It uses a system of calibrated springs or elastic deformation to measure the force applied. The measuring needle displays the value directly on a graduated dial.
Can a mechanical dynamometer measure different units?
Yes, depending on the model, it can display measurements in Newton-meter (N-m), kilogram-force (kgf) or pound-force (lbf). Some models also feature double graduation.
How long does a mechanical dynamometer last?
A well-maintained mechanical dynamometer can last for decades, thanks to its robust mechanism and the absence of sensitive electronic components.
