device description:

The inertia moment measuring device allows direct determination of inertia moments (MOI) and indirect multiplication moments (POI) for the range of ۴۰۰۰ kg with very appropriate accuracy. The method of measuring inertial momentum is based on accurate measurement of the period of inverted pendulum oscillations, including a retaining rod, measuring table, object to be measured, and body holding fixture. In this method, by measuring twice, once with the body and again without the body, the net moment of inertia of the body around the oscillation axis can be determined. The same is done to determine the other two moments of inertia, so the measurement must be made along three axes that are determined before the start of the measurement process. It should be noted that before measuring inertial momentum, it is necessary to carefully determine the coordinates of the center of mass of the object.

Technical specifications and components of the device:

The device for measuring mass properties has the following technical specifications and components:

Calibrated table to install the object to be measured and the corresponding fixture. This table is located on a spherical air bearing and is connected to the flexible head rod from the bottom.

Flexible rod with the ability to connect as a retainer as a torsion spring.

Spherical air bearing consists of two parts, stator and rotor in order to bear the weight of the body and a set of table and its accessories with the least amount of friction.

A cylindrical air bearing to maintain the axis of rotation.

Optical timer for recording the period of oscillations.

Computer and control interface and automation.

Computational software and functional commands.

Compressed air system including compressor and pneumatic components.

Types of digital electronic displays with sufficient resolution.
