Abstract

See full text

A moment calibrating apparatus (1) is provided with an elongated force transmitting member (6) for transmitting a force applied to the end portion thereof to a multi-component force gauge (5), a load applying mechanism (7) for applying a load without changing the direction of the force along a direction perpendicular to said end portion, and a calculation unit (8) for calculating a true moment free from the effect of a perpendicular load on the basis of the moment value around the axis in the direction orthogonal to the perpendicular direction, measured by the multi-component force gauge (5) under the condition that said perpendicular load along the direction perpendicular to said end portion is applied by the load applying mechanism (7), wherein a moment calibration of the multi-component force gauge (5) is performed using said true moment calculated by the calculation unit (8).
