Examination of Systematic Bench Errors for Calibration of a Strain-Gauge Balance

Resumo

We present a schematic diagram of the automated calibration stand 6GS-40M intended for calibration of an intra- and out-of-model six-component strain-gauge balance. The basic features of the stand construction are stated and its elastic model is constructed. The main sources of the occurrence of systematic errors in weights are considered. A technique for calculating the movement of the origin of the stand during the calibration of the balance is described. A technique for calculating loads in the Earth coordinate system is described by recording the equation of equilibrium of forces for an arbitrary position of the calibration device in space.
