The Coil Spring (SM1000f) fits in the area above the
loading platform of TecQuipment?s Universal Testing
Machine (SM1000).
The spring is of the same heavy-duty design as those used
in vehicle suspensions. This give students a better
understanding of a ?real world? engineering component.
Two metal ?bosses? hold the spring securely in the testing
machine, which compresses the spring. The digital
indicator of the testing machine measures the change in
spring length (displacement) for a given change in applied
force. Students use the displacement and force values to
find the actual spring rate and compare it with the
theoretical value, based on the spring dimensions. The
experiment helps to show Hooke?s Law for the relationship
between force and displacement on a spring.
COIL SPRING
Test Coil Spring and attachments to allow tests to prove Hookes’ Law and other spring properties using TecQuipment’s SM1000 Universal Test machine.
