How to Calibrate the Weight Transmitter with Torque Sensor?

Hi, I have an ATO-TQS-S04 micro reaction torque sensor and ATO-LCTR-OA load cell transmitter. I'm a bit confused about how to calibrate the weight transmitter. I'm using a USB 6008 to acquire the voltage output. Should I be doing the calibration myself? Also, to convert the voltage to torque, is it correct to use a linear relationship like 10V = 3.0 N.m?

I had a similar issue recently. Yes, you should do the calibration yourself.

1. For calibrating the weight transmitter, you can refer to our video, you just need to change the weight to the torque value if the sensor you are using is a static torque sensor.

You can try to connect the torque sensor to the transmitter, and then apply different torques, check if the linear value change of the output is correct or not. if it is correct it means it has been calibrated, otherwise you need to re-calibrate it.

Make sure to use precise weights when testing different torques. Sometimes, minor inaccuracies in your weights can affect the calibration. Also, ensure your USB 6008 is functioning correctly and isn’t introducing any errors.

I've had some experience with this as well. After connecting the sensor and applying the torque, if you find the linear value change isn’t matching up, you might want to check the wiring or any potential interference in your setup. Calibration can be sensitive to such factors.
