1、Designation:E262417Standard Practice forTorque Calibration of Testing Machines1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2624;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parenthese
2、s indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This practice covers procedures and requirements forthe calibration of torque for static and quasi-static torquecapable testing machines.These may,or may not,
3、have torqueindicating systems and include those devices used for thecalibration of hand torque tools.Testing machines may becalibrated by one of the three following methods or combina-tion thereof:1.1.1 Use of standard weights and lever arms.1.1.2 Use of elastic torque measuring devices.1.1.3 Use of
4、 elastic force measuring devices and lever arms.1.1.4 Any of the methods require a specific uncertainty ofmeasurement,displaying metrological traceability to The In-ternational System of Units(SI).NOTE1 for further definition of the term metrological traceability,refer to the latest revision of JCGM
5、 200:International vocabulary ofmetrology Basic and general concepts and associated terms(VIM).1.2 The procedures of 1.1.1,1.1.2,and 1.1.3 apply to thecalibration of the torque-indicating systems associated with thetesting machine,such as a scale,dial,marked or unmarkedrecorder chart,digital display
6、,etc.In all cases the buyer/owner/user must designate the torque-indicating system(s)to becalibrated and included in the report.1.3 Since conversion factors are not required in thispractice,either english units,metric units,or SI units can beused as the standard.1.4 Torque values indicated on displa
