of Gravity Instrument

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Our models SE199 and SE300 are designed to measure weight and precisely locate the CG of very small test objects along a single axis (dual axis versions of these instruments are also available). They are particularly well suited for locating the axial position of the center of gravity of bullets and other small projectiles. With proper fixturing, the CG of hard drive heads, gyro rotors, small turbine buckets, and other small objects can also be accurately determined. The CG of a typical small caliber bullet can be determined within +/- .002 inches. These instruments use the active moment transducer concept developed by Space Electronics to achieve a sensitivity which is 100 times greater than usually possible with an instrument of this type.

HIGHLIGHTED BENEFITS

Moment sensitivity as good as 0.01 g-mm can be obtained.

Minimal setup and measurement time - This instrument is ideal for customers who need to measure dozens or hundreds of payloads.

Controller - This instrument is controlled by a computer that automates calibration, measurement, and result calculation. All measurement results are stored in a database.

Simple operation - Step-by-step procedures on the computer screen guide the operator through the determination of weight and center of gravity.

Printer - An optional printer can be provided to print test reports.

FIXTURING

Space Electronics has provided dozens of fixtures for SE199 and SE300 instruments. These range from pins to hold hard drive actuators to V-blocks and end stops to hold cylindrical parts. Please describe your payload when inquiring about these instruments so we can provide the best fixturing.
