Investigation of the Effect of Waiting Time in Force Steps During Force Calibration

Abstract

In this study, the effects of the waiting time in the force steps on the calibration results during the calibration of force measuring devices was investigated. For measurements, strain gauge force measuring device and piezoelectric force measuring device were selected. Both force transducers are calibrated to the ISO 376 standard. The waiting times in force steps during calibration were taken as 1 s, 10 s and 60 s. The effects on the results obtained at different waiting times was investigated. Changes in results for both sensors were examined.
