A mechanical device test stand is one specific type of test stand. It is a facility used to develop, characterize and test mechanical components. The facility allows for the testing of the component and, it offers measurement of several physical variables associated to the functionality of the component. Such components could be electromechanical, motors or tools. The intended use of the test stand is for compliance testing of predetermined desired values and fatigue testing. A sophisticated mechanical component test stand houses several integrated measurement and control (imc) components, such as sensors, data acquisition devices and actuators to control the component. The sensors measure several physical variables, such as: * Strain/multi-axial strain * Mechanical stress * Rigidity/stiffness * Angle * Vibration/oscillation signals Information gathered from the sensors is processed and logged through the use of data acquisition systems. Actuators allow for attaining a desired state. Test stands for mechanical devices are often custom-built according to the requirements of the customer. They often include a feedback control system. ==Applications for mechanical device test stands== * Research and Development of components, motors and tools (e.g., the testing of sun roofs, engine hoods, welding equipment. etc.), typically found in factory environments. * End of production line at an OEM factory. Changing of tested components can take place automatically. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mechanical device test stands」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
