A rig that measures input and output torque to map a small gearbox’s efficiency across speeds.
StagePrototype, Stage 4 of 7
Measure small losses accurately enough to compare two lubricants.
A test rig with torque sensing on both shafts, with its drawings and calibration notes archived.
Torque sensors on both shafts and a controlled motor sweep the speed range while a load brake holds torque steady.
