Description
The Helixa-i is a precision torque tester controlled by software running on a PC. Designed for precision torque applications where torque forces may be very small and accuracy is the priority. The precision of the Helixa-i combined with Emperor control & acquisition software enables you to fully characterise the torque and friction in the rotation of parts and components. Its high-quality construction, manufactured under ISO 9001 quality standards, ensures the ultimate in repeatable testing.
With a wide range of precision fixtures, the Helixa-i is easy to use and optimised for measuring torque from 1 mN.m to 6 N.m. Measurement accuracy is an outstanding ±0.5% of the sensor capacity. The HTC range of interchangeable torque sensors are specially adapted for the Helixa test system.Plug and play for automatic calibration with availability to suit all requirements in capacities from 0.1 N.m (0.9 lbf.in) to 6 N.m (50 lbf.in).
The Helixa-i is the perfect solution for measuring low and medium torque on a variety of delicate or finely engineered products. Its sensitivity and precision alignment make it suitable for testing high-quality assemblies, such as those found in cosmetics, jewellery, electronics, pharmaceutical and medical industries. Its versatile construction even allows for an axial force to be simultaneously applied whilst torque is measured – essential for products such as child-resistant closures.
