AFME001 Bending Moment Didactic Equipment Classroom Training Set Mechanical Trainer I.Overview This equipment is for mechanical engineering department or mechanics engineering department in university, it’s for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, Engineering Mechanics, Solid Mechanics major and other mechanics related department. This equipment is used for measurement of bending moment on a section of a beam from which comparison with theoretical values can be made. It is to be used with Universal Base Frame. The beam has two parts with a ball bearing hinge at the joint. An underhung spring balance holds the hinge in compression, hence resists bending moment. The beam rests on two round supports. Load hangers and weights slide along the beam. Instruction manual is also included. II.Typical Experiments Visual demonstration of the Shear Force and Bending Moment at a cut section in a beam Variation in bending moment for variations in load, load position and load arrangement Comparison of experimental results with theoretical values and bending moment diagrams III.Technical Data Structure: aluminum Bottom with adjustable rubber to adjust the height. The total weight is less than 200kgs. Working environment: -10℃~40℃， Humidity<85% Beam length 700 mm Round Supports 2 Spring balance 1 Load hangers 3 Load cell and Force Indicator with digital output instead of spring balance.
