Product Description

The apparatus consists of an Epicyclic Gear Train. The gear train consists of an internal gear having 56 teeth two planet gears with 21 teeth each and sun gear having 14 teeth. The train is driven by a 3ph. 1hp.1440 rpm. motor giving max. input torque of 0.5 Kgm The planet carrier carries the planet gears. The internal gear is mounted over a flange which rotates in bearings. A pulley is mounted over a output shaft of internal gear. Torque measurement arrangement with spring balance is provided for both the internal gear and planet carrier, so that either or them can be held stationery and holding torque required for stationery member and output torque for the other member can be measured. The motor is provided with DOL starter, the whole unit is mounted over a sturdy frame. Motor current is calibrated for output torque of the motor. A three channel RPM indicator (digital) can be supplied with the unit at an extra cost which enables to determine the angular velocities of all the members. A digital torque indicator for motor output torque can be supplied at an extra cost , instead of motor current calibration. A technical manual accompanies the unit.
