Abstract

A torsion tester incorporates a microprocessor based data acquisition/control package and special tooling. The tooling makes calibration of the tester very easy. The combination of the tooling and control package permits acquisition, storage and transfer of test data that is accurate, absolute and repeatable. In addition, torsion tester provides a zeroing pin and a zeroing slot on opposing tooling members for calibration. Further, the torsion tester provides an interchangably mounted load cell.
