A 'brake' dynamometer applies variable load on the prime mover (PM) and measures the PM's ability to move or hold the RPM as related to the "braking force" applied. It is usually connected to a computer that records applied braking torque and calculates engine power output based on information from a "load cell" or "strain gauge" and a speed ...
An example of an electrical force gauge is an "electronic scale". One or more electrical load cells (commonly referred to as "weigh bars") are used to support a vertical or horizontal "live load" and are solid-state potentiometers which have variable internal resistance proportional to the load they are subjected to and deflected by.
Planar Beam load cells; used in low profile solutions where space is limited, like medical scales and retail scales. Bending Beam load cells; used in pallet, platform and small hopper scales. Shear Beam load cells; used in low profile scale and process applications, available in capacities from 100kg up to 50t.
A Safe Load Indicator (SLI) or an Automatic Safe Load Indicator (ASLI) is a device which is installed on mobile or portal cranes to alert the operator if the lift is exceeding the safe operating range of the machinery. [1] In some cases, the device will physically lock the machinery in circumstances it determines to be unsafe.
"Dynamo Electric Machine" (end view, partly section, U.S. patent 284,110) A dynamo is an electrical generator that creates direct current using a commutator.Dynamos were the first electrical generators capable of delivering power for industry, and the foundation upon which many other later electric-power conversion devices were based, including the electric motor, the alternating-current ...
It accounts for the dynamic effects that can increase the load on a crane's structure and components during lifting operations. These effects include: Hoisting acceleration and deceleration of the load, which is a significant factor; Crane movement such as slewing or luffing; Load swinging; Wind forces acting on the crane, the load and the ...
A machine-tool dynamometer is a multi-component dynamometer that is used to measure forces during the use of the machine tool. Empirical calculations of these forces can be cross-checked and verified experimentally using these machine tool dynamometers .
The inaugural Cranes Asia conference is to take place in Singapore from 9–10 December 2009 [6] Cranes Today publishes its Fleet File every summer, usually in the June edition. Fleet File is a database of who owns what in the crane industry. In 2009 it included entries from 500 companies owning more than 38,000 cranes in 50 countries. [7]
