Learn How to Calibrate a Torque Analyzer and Torque Sensor

Synopsis


Details

A torque analyzer or a torque sensor is a finely tuned laboratory-grade instrument for measuring torque, calibrating and verifying torque tools. Torque measurement equipment requires regular calibration to ensure accuracy and precision.

Calibration is the method of comparing tools and measuring devices to higher accuracy standards. Torque calibration equipment is the official means by which torque testers and sensors are calibrated and are traceable to National or International Standards, such as N.I.S.T and ISO.

Companies that invest in calibration equipment must ensure their processes conform to national and international standards. Calibrating torque tools requires proper staff training. Prevent a correction action from being issued due to an expired calibration with torque instruments. Lapses in calibrating torque measurement instruments expose a manufacturer to inaccurate measurements.

Watch and learn how to implement the calibration process for these instruments.
