Drill Tool and Dynamometer

This is a armed wheel type strain gauge based Drill Tool Dynamometer designed to measure Thrust & Torque during drilling operation and effect of speed, feed cut on these forces. The unit consists of a mechanical sensing unit or test piece holder and digital force indicator. The job can be mounted on a workplace holder on mechanical sensing unit. The unit is useful for drilling up to 20 mm dia.

Technical Details

Mechanical Sensing Unit with Job Holder with strain Gauges mounted on it.
• Digital Force Indicator - two channel, to read both thrust and torque simultaneously.
• Balancing Potentiometer for initial balancing
• Range - thrust - 0 to 200 Kg, torque - 0 to 20.0 Kg m, least count – 0.1 Kg m.
• The set up is calibrated at our works.

Range Of Experiment
  • The test rig enables to determine I.H.P. B.H.P., specific fuel consumption, Air fuel ratio volumetric efficiency and heat balance sheet at different loads and speeds.
