Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 percent error, nin the case of a speed measuringsystem, the ratio, expressed as a percent, of the error to thereference value of the applied speed.3.1.1.1 DiscussionThe speed, as measured by the testingmachine, and t
9、he speed, as computed from the readings of thecalibration devices, shall be recorded at each verified speed.The percent error, shall be calculated from this data as follows:Percent Error 5 TMsp 2 Refsp!/Refsp# 3100 (1)where:TMsp = speed measured by the machine being verified,mm/min in/min, andRefsp
10、= reference value of the measured speed, mm/minin/min, as determined by the calibration device.Not all testing machines have available indicated speedvalues. In such cases, the verification of the testing ma-chines speed setting is applicable. The percent error for thetesting machine speed settings,

17、ems.4. Significance and Use4.1 Material testing requires repeatable and predictabletesting machine speed. The speed measuring devices integral tothe testing machines may be used for measurement of cross-head speed over a defined range of operation. The accuracy ofthe speed value shall be traceable t
18、o a National or InternationalStandards Laboratory. Practices E2658 provides procedures toverify testing machines, in order that the indicated speed valuesmay be traceable. A key element to having traceability is thatthe devices used in the verification produce known speedcharacteristics, and have be
19、en calibrated in accordance withadequate calibration standards.4.2 Verification of testing machine speed at a minimumconsists of either or both of the following options:4.2.1 Verifying the capability of the testing machine tomove the crosshead at the speed selected.4.2.2 Verifying the capability of
20、the testing machine toadequately indicate the speed of the crosshead.4.3 Where applicable, determine the testing machinesramp-to-speed condition. This condition can be significantespecially when verifying fast speeds or testing conditions withvery short testing durations.4.4 This procedure will esta
21、blish the relationship betweenthe actual crosshead speed and the testing machine indicatedspeed and or selected setting. It is this relationship that willallow confidence in the reported displacement over time dataacquired by the testing machine during use.NOTE 1Many material tests never reach the d
22、esired test speed. Unlessthe actual data from the material test is examined, it is often impossible toknow if the test speed has been reached or is repeatable from test to test.5. Calibration Devices5.1 Reference standards used for verification of speedmeasuring systems shall have estimated measurem
23、ent uncer-tainties. The measurement uncertainty of verification results,contain the combination of the uncertainty of the displacementcalibration device and time indicating device. The combinedestimate of uncertainty for the reference standards shall beequal to or less than13 the allowable error for
24、 the measuringsystem. The estimated measurement uncertainty of the refer-ence standards should have a confidence level of 95% (k=2).5.2 It is recommended that the testing machine have itsdisplacement measuring systems verified in compliance withPractices E2309 prior to performing this verification.
25、Often thesame displacement calibration devices can be used to performPractices E2309 and this practice. It may be possible to attachthe Displacement Calibration Device one time and performboth verification practices.5.3 Displacement Calibration Devices:5.3.1 Digital Linear Scales and Displacement Me
26、asuringTransducersThese devices typically have sufficient resolu-tion and accuracy to perform verification of all speed settings.It is important to assess the minimum measurement capabilityof the device. At very slow speeds it may take considerabletime to reach an end displacement value that is adeq
27、uate for theuse of the device.5.3.1.1 These devices may also have the capability to beautomated.5.4 Time Indicating Devices5.4.1 Time pieces such as quartz wrist and stop watches canbe used for slower speed settings. The time piece shall have acalibration traceable to a national metrology institute.
28、 For mostpurposes, a time piece with an accuracy of 60.02% (approxi-mately 2 second in 3 hours) is sufficient. The uncertainty of thecalibration of the time piece shall be at most13 the accuracy ofthe time piece and shall not significantly contribute to theuncertainty of the speed measurement. See N
29、IST SpecialPublication 960-12.3With automated computer software, ac-curacies of 60.01 seconds may be achieved. However, caremust be taken in designing such systems to avoid errors due tothings such as timer resolution, programming languagelimitations, competing interrupts and processes, etc. Thirdpa
30、rty software is available to track and adjust the computerclock referenced to NIST.6. System Verification6.1 Speed measuring systems shall be verified as a systemwith the speed sensing and measuring devices in place andoperating as in actual use.6.2 System verification is invalid if the speed sensin

33、 consist of at least two verificationruns of speed derived data per selected testing machine speedsetting.6.3.1 If the initial verification run produces any percenterror values outside applicable specifications, the “as found”data may be reported and may be used in accordance withapplicable quality
34、control programs.6.3.2 Adjustments may be made to improve the accuracy ofthe system. They shall be followed by one additional verifica-tion run, and issuance of a new verification report. Typically,making adjustments to improve testing machine speed willinfluence all speed settings. If an adjustment
35、 is made, all testedspeeds must be re-verified unless it can be demonstrated thatthe adjustment did not affect other speed settings.6.3.3 Quality control programs may require evidence ofrepeatability, reproducibility and reversibility. In such cases itis recommended that a minimum of one speed be ve
36、rified forrepeatability, reproducibility, and reversibility.6.4 The testing machine is verified with the crossheadconfigured to free run with no specimen installed.NOTE 2Testing machine compliance under loading conditions mayintroduce small errors in the displacement measurement data during actualma
37、terials testing. This error is considered insignificant relative to thisverification. There are also testing machines where the crosshead speedslows when force is applied. In such cases where it is necessary to verifyspeed of the testing machine under loaded conditions, higher accuracydisplacement c
38、alibration devices such as laser interferometer measuringsystems, or extensometer type displacement reference standards must beused due to the very small displacements being verified.7. Methods of Verification7.1 Start and Stop Method:7.1.1 This method requires that a set of starting and stoppingdis
39、placement and time readings be recorded from the displace-ment and time calibration devices.7.1.2 In order to obtain data within expected tolerances anassessment of the ramp-to-speed condition may be necessaryso the test run can be started after the crosshead has reached aconstant speed condition.7.
40、1.3 It is best to have testing machine software that caneasily acquire and report displacement and time data during theverification run for each selected speed.7.1.4 The comparison of the reference start and stop valuesand the data reported by the testing system provides the basisfor verification of
41、 speed using this method.7.2 Continuous Acquisition Method:7.2.1 This is the preferred method of verifying testingmachine speed.7.2.2 This method requires automated computer software toacquire data from the displacement calibration device.7.2.3 This method can be used to adequately assess theramp-to
42、-speed condition for each speed setting verified.7.2.4 This method can show variability in the testing ma-chine speed throughout the verification run.8. Selection of Verification Speed Values8.1 Many testing machines have a selection of presetcrosshead speeds, typically ranging from .025mm/min to10,
43、000mm/minute (.001in/min to 400 in/minute). It is difficultand very time consuming to verify every selectable settingavailable with testing machines. Additionally, it is oftenimpossible to adequately verify the fastest speed selectionsbecause displacement calibration devices are typically not longen
44、ough to accommodate the displacement necessary. For thesereasons, at a minimum, speeds most commonly used should beselected for verification.Aminimum of two runs of verificationdata for each speed is required.8.1.1 In some cases a testing machine might only be used atone speed with one clutch select
45、ed. In such a case only onespeed with two runs of data are all that is required to meet thisstandard.8.2 Many testing machines have multiple clutch selections.If the testing machine is used with multiple clutch settings,speeds for each clutch setting shall be verified even if theselected speed is th
46、e same as a selected speed verified with adifferent clutch setting.8.3 In selecting speeds to be verified, consideration of thetotal displacement and time must be considered. The totaldisplacement must be great enough to allow for the displace-ment calibration devices measurement uncertainty. If the
47、calibration devices are automated, time is not as critical to theoverall measurement uncertainty. But, if a manual Start andStop method is employed, the duration of the verification runmust be long enough to minimize error due to human action.The manual Start and Stop method also requires that the t
48、otaldisplacement and duration of the verification run be longenough to start beyond the ramp to speed condition. SeeAppendix X1.8.4 It is not normal to experience a difference in the speedindication of the testing machine when the crosshead moves inthe opposite direction. However, gravity may contri
49、bute to adifference in the ramp to speed condition when the crossheadis operated in the descending mode. The testing machineshould be verified in the mode of operation normally usedduring testing.9. Preliminary Procedure9.1 Alignment:9.1.1 When attaching the displacement calibration device, itis important to minimize any misalignment. Significant errorscan be induced due to misalignment. Gauge blocks or a squaremay be used to ensure that the displacement calibration deviceoperates perpendicular to the crosshead in electro-mechanicaltesting mach
