Force Calibration

 

The Force Laboratory is capable of calibrating Universal Testing Machines up to 3000 kN for compression and up to 1000 kN for tension using precise load cells of various ranges.

The following standard load cells are used for force calibration:

1000 N – tension & compression

5 kN – tension & compression

25 kN – tension & compression

100 kN – tension & compression

250 kN – tension & compression

500 kN – tension & compression

1000 kN – tension & compression

3000 kN – compression only
