Milling Tool Dynamometer

This is simple and easy to understand set up designed to study behavior of cutting forces during Milling Operation. This is based on octagonal ring method, which consist two pairs of octagonal rings with strain gauges mounted on it. These rings are sandwiched between two plates. A machine vice is mounted on top plate to hold job to be machined. A three channel digital force indicator is provided to measure three forces simultaneously.

Specifications -

• Mechanical sensing unit with octagonal ring set and strain gauges.
• Digital force indicator - 3 channel to measure three forces simultaneously.
• Range - 0 to 500 Kg
• Resolution - 1 Kg
• Balancing pots for initial zero setting.
• Machine vice to hold job.
• The set up is calibrated at our works with the help of standard Proving Ring.
