advanced motorized torque TEST STAND
MODEL TSTM-dc / TSTMH-DC

The TSTM-DC Advanced Motorized Torque Test Stand offers all the mechanical specifications of the TSTM motorized test stand, including 100 lbin (11.3 Nm) torque capacity, versatile modular design, quick engagement and disengagement of samples, fixture mounting plate, stepper motor de sign that prevents speed variation with load, and more. The TSTM-DC offers expanded capabilities, including full PC control, programmable angle limits, programmable cycling, auto return, and other features.	Maximum load: 100 lbin (11.3 Nm) Speed range: 0.01 - 15 RPM (0.05 - 90°/s) Speed accuracy: ±0.2% of setting, ±0% variation with load Digital display of angle Programmable angle limits Rotational travel accuracy: ±0.7° / 0.002 rev. Rotational travel repeatability: 0.1° / 0.01 rev. Rotational travel resolution: 0.1° / 0.01 rev. Throat: 4.10" (104 mm) Manual adjustment: 12°/knob rev Angle dial with 2° resolution Maximum slider travel: 15.5" (394 mm) Slider travel rate: 1.047" (26.6 mm) / lever rev Universal power supply: 80-250 VAC CE mark

• Computer Control

  A bi-directional RS-232 port is provided to interface with a PC. A command set is provided to allow for full control from a PC.

  The following are required with PC control:

  - Model 5i force/torque indicator (more info)

  - 09-1162 multi-function cable (see below)

  - 09-1056 serial cable (see below)

• Digital Angle Indication

  Rotational travel is indicated in degrees or revolutions, with RS-232 output of angle data.

• Programmable Angle Limits

  The TSTM-DC can stop at or cycle between programmable upper and lower angle limits. Programmable in degrees or revolutions.

• Overload Protection

  Protects the torque sensor against overload (requires a Model 5i force/torque indicator and 09-1162 multi-function cable). The user programs the desired percentage of full scale of the sensor.

• Auto-return

  The torque table rotates to an angle limit or torque set point (requires a Model 5i force/torque indicator and 09-1162 cable), stops, and reverses direction at full speed to the other angle limit or torque set point.

• Cycling / Dwell Time

  Same as Auto-return, but with the ability to program the number of cycles up to 99,999 cycles. Dwell time allows the operator to program the length of time, up to 9,999.9 seconds, in 0.1 second intervals, for which the torque table pauses between cycles. Independent CW and CCW speeds may be programmed.

• Programmable Button Functions

  Expands CW and CCW button operation to three user-configurable modes:
  1. Maintained (standard): short push produces continuous motion until STOP is pressed
  2. Momentary: torque table rotates only while the button is pressed
  3. Auto: short push produces maintained motion, while holding the button down will produce momentary motion

• Independent CW and CCW Speeds

  Configurable speeds for CW and CCW directions.

• Selectable speed units of measurement (RPM and °/s)
• Password protection

  Prevents unauthorized changes to test parameters.

Series R50 universal torque sensors Mount directly to the test stand. A wide range of capacities is available. 5i or 3i force/torque indicator The indicator displays the torque readout of the R50 sensor. More basic Series TT03 torque gauges can also be used. Multi-function cable, 5i gauge to controller Connects a Model BGI force/torque gauge to the controller. This single cable is used to transmit set points, overload signals, and torque data. Serial cable, controller to PC Bi-directional communication with a PC for computer control. Also sends torque data from the controller to a PC. RS-232 to USB adapter Converts RS-232 to USB output. Includes USB cable and installation CD. Column extension Column can be extended to custom lengths (see Ordering Information). Grips and attachments A variety of grips and attachments are available. Axial compensator >> Allows for axial movement in threaded fasteners, bottle caps, and similar torque testing applications.
