Universal Vibration Apparatus [In Separate Modules]

The apparatus provided comprehensive unit to perform the vibration experiments.
Three different modules are provided upon which various experiments can be performed.

Cam Analysis Apparatus

To study the cam profiles and performance of cam and follower system.
Whirling of Shaft Demonstrator
The unit demonstrates the phenomenon of whirling of shafts with single rotor
Static & Dynamic Balancing Apparatus
The unit offers total flexibility for fixing the weight to the discs. System of known unbalance known MR value of weights, their longitudinal and angular position
Motorised Gyroscope Apparatus
By measuring the applied torque angular - velocity of precession, it can be shown that applied torque equals to Gyroscopic couple
Journal Bearing Apparatus

A torque arm and weights provided enable to measure the friction torque. Weight set is provided to load the bearing. Thus experiments can be conducted at various loads & speeds.

Governor Apparatus

To calculate characteristics of each governor at different speed and compare their performance. Viz. sensitiveness, stability, governor effort etc

Coriollis Component of Aceleration Apparatus
To determine coriolli’s component of acceleration the torque given by motor is proportional to corioill’s component of acceleration. Water flow is measured by a rotameter.Torque measured by a torqu e arm & spring balance
Epicyclic Gear Train & Holding Torque
To study the performance of epicyclic Gear Train & Holding Torque
