(Morehouse: York, PA) -- Morehouse Instrument Co., a trusted and accredited provider of force and torque measurement services for more than 100 years, has introduced a new small deadweight machine (SDM). Designed to address the challenges of calibrating small force instruments, the SDM sets a new standard for metrology accuracy, efficiency, and versatility.

Traditional methods for calibrating small force instruments, such as stacking weights or using makeshift jigs, are time-consuming and prone to error. The SDM is Morehouse’s most compact, fully automated deadweight machine yet. Designed with interchangeable weights and cutting-edge technology, it eliminates manual weight handling and ensures calibration accuracies exceeding 0.005% of applied force.
Key advantages of the SDM
• Unmatched accuracy: Standard force values are meticulously calibrated, accounting for material density, air buoyancy, and local gravity.
• Eliminates tare weight issue: Precision adapters and calibrated hangers ensure accurate measurements every time.
• Smooth, automated processes: Say goodbye to vibrations and fluctuations caused by manual loading by operators.
• Efficiency boost: One operator can manage multiple SDM machines, streamlining calibration workflow and throughput.
• Versatility: The SDM is adaptable to diverse industries, from pharmaceuticals and material testing manufacturers to surgical tools and high-tech fiber production.
• Customization: Morehouse offers SDM machines with force ranges from 0.044 lbf (20 gf) to 44 lbf (20 kgf) to meet client needs.
“At Morehouse Instrument Co., precision isn’t just a goal—it’s our promise. With the SDM, we’re transforming small force calibration, ensuring accuracy, reliability, repeatability, and efficiency for your critical applications,” says Henry Zumbrun, president of Morehouse.
Features
• Automated mV/V data collection via Morehouse 4215 and HADI indicators; also compatible with Keysight/Agilent 34401 for voltage and current output transducers.
• An optional coupling kit: SDM-Adapter Kit1 fits most small-capacity load cells on the market (custom adapters are also available).
• Software output in standard Morehouse format and Excel; consult Morehouse about customizing software to integrate with your existing process.
• Standard weights can be loaded in any combination to create custom test profiles.
• Avoid errors associated with using off-the-shelf mass-calibrated weights not calibrated for force.
• Eliminate force excursions and swinging associated with hand-loading of weights.
• True primary standard deadweight machine.
