2.2 Hints for Handling this Device
You must only work with the dynamometer in specified
environmental and operating conditions
Insulation resistance is crucial for piezoelectric
measurements; it must be about 100 T
(but at least
10 T)
To obtain this value, all the plug connections must be
kept scrupulously clean and dry
The insulation resistance can be measured with a Type
5493 insulation tester
Protect the device signal output against contamination
and do not touch it with your fingers. Put on the
supplied cover if the connection is not assigned
The connecting cable (connecting cable from the
dynamometer to the charge amplifier input) has high
insulation. Only specified connecting cables must be
used
The connecting cable should not be removed from the
dynamometer
When the dynamometer is not being used, keep it in
the supplied packing case to protect it
During long-term measurements, make sure that the
dynamometer temperature stays as constant as possible

3. General Device Description
3.1 What is a Multicomponent Dynamometer Used for?
The multicomponent dynamometer is used for dynamic
and quasistatic measurement of the 3 orthogonal
components of any force acting on the cover plate (Fx, Fy
and Fz).
The dynamometer is extremely rigid and therefore has a
high natural frequency. The high resolution allows the
smallest dynamic changes of large forces to be measured.
The dynamometer measures the active force, irrespective
of its application point. Both the average force value and
the dynamic part of the force signal can be measured. The
useful frequency range mainly depends on the natural
frequency of the entire measurement setup.
Fig.1: Dynamometer Type 9139AA
The most important areas of application for the
multicomponent dynamometer are:
General 3-component force measurement
Cutting force measurement for example in:
milling
surface grinding
drilling
General Device Description
9139AA_002-735e-06.15 Page 9
3.2 Functional Principle
The force to be measured is applied via a cover plate and
distributed to four, 3-component force sensors arranged
between the cover plate and the two base plates.
Each force sensor contains three quartz crystal plate pairs,
of which one is sensitive to pressure in the z direction and
the other two are sensitive to shear in the x and
y directions. There is practically no deflection during
measurement.
In these four force sensors, the applied force is split into
three components.
Fig.2: Force sensor setup in the multicomponent
dynamometer: quartz crystal plate pairs for the 3
measuring directions
For force measurement with 3 components, the individual
signals are brought together in the connecting cable.
Positive or negative charges are produced at the
connections, depending on the direction of the force.
Negative charges produce positive voltages at the charge
amplifier output, and vice versa.

Page 10 9139AA_002-735e-06.15
3.3 Dynamometer Construction
The dynamometer consists of four 3-component force
sensors, mounted under high preload between two base
plates and one cover plate.
This preload is the requirement for friction force
transmission.
The four force sensors are installed ground-isolated. This
largely eliminates ground loop problems.
The dynamometer is rustproof and protected against the
ingress of splash water and cooling agent. Together with
the (Type 1687B5 or Type 1677A5) connecting cable, the
dynamometer meets the requirements of degree of
protection IP67.
As a result of the specific sensor location and signal
connection, the dynamometer is largely insensitive to
temperature shifts.

4. Mounting, Installation and Initial Startup
4.1 Important Information
The Type 9139AA multicomponent dynamometer is a
precision instrument, with inherent accuracy that will only
remain useful and intact if the device is carefully handled. It
is therefore important to observe the following instructions:
Do not drop the dynamometer and do not subject it to
sharp blows! The maximum force of this type of shock
could exceed the device measuring range and cause
lasting deformation
Do not use a hammer to position the workpieces, as
striking the workpieces will also cause deformation
The chapters that follow contain information about
dynamometer installation.

4.2 Mounting the Dynamometer
To mount the dynamometer properly, please note the
following:
The dynamometer must only be installed by persons
who are familiar with the device and who are suitably
qualified for this work
The connecting cable is first connected to the
dynamometer. Both sides of the connector (the
dynamometer and the cable) are cleaned with Type
1003 cleaning and insulating spray. The enclosed O-
ring is used for sealing. The bearing surfaces for the O-
ring must be clean. The O-ring is inserted and the cable
flange screwed to the dynamometer with two screws,
and tightened until seated
Tightening torque (M
A
): 4.5 N·m
Before mounting the dynamometer on a machine tool
or a testing device, check that the mounting surface is
flat. Uneven bearing surfaces cause inner distortion,
which additionally exposes the individual force sensors
to high shear loads and can increase crosstalk

The bottom surface of the dynamometer is ground, i.e.
precision machined. The device must therefore only be
installed on mounting surfaces that are ground or
machined to the same standard. The specific alignment of
the force sensors requires the quality of the mounting
surface to be meticulously monitored. Thoroughly clean
the bearing surfaces before assembly.
Make sure that the dynamometer is resting completely
flat. Even the tiniest air gap can produce unwanted
elasticity and lead to a reduction in the resonance
frequency of the measuring arrangement. Please
therefore pay attention to the oscillation aspects of the
assemblies as well
If possible, the connecting cable should always stay
connected to the dynamometer
Install the connecting cable so that it can neither shear
off nor be pulled out when working
The two long sides of the base plates or the long sides
of the cover plate are used to align the dynamometer
on a magnetic plate or a machine table

Fig. 5: Alignment surfaces on the cover plate

Page 14 9139AA_002-735e-06.15
The dynamometer can be mounted in two different ways.
a. With 8 M10 screws
For this type of mounting, 8 M10 threaded bores are
required on the assembly table. The tightening torque
is always 70 N·m, the strength class 12.9.
Fig. 6: Mounting with screws
b. On a magnetic plate
If a magnetic plate is used, there is no need to
subsequently provide the assembly table with
mounting bores.
Beware!
With this type of mounting, the process forces must not be
greater than the magnetic forces. It is essential to stop the
dynamometer slipping in order to prevent damage to the
measuring instrument.

4.3 Basic Connection and Cabling of the Measuring System
Charge amplifiers convert the electric charges output by
the dynamometer (picocoulomb = pC) into proportional
voltages that can be displayed, recorded or processed with
the usual instruments.
Please note the following information when cabling the
measuring system
The connecting cables from the dynamometer to the
charge amplifier must have good insulation and be low
triboelectricity. Only the specified connecting cables
must be used.
Conventional cables can be used for the connection
between the charge amplifier and the indicators or
evaluation devices.
All work on electrical connections must be carried out
carefully and tidily. Only remove the caps covering the
connections immediately before connecting a cable.
Please refer to the two chapters below for the cabling
information for specific configurations.
4.4 Dynamometer Positioning
The dynamometer and the cables must be positioned so
that coolants can drain completely. This stops
aggressive bacteria forming in old coolant, which could
then damage the dynamometer and the cables.
Depressions and creases should therefore be avoided
Install the connecting cable so that it can neither shear
off nor be pulled out when working

4.5 Basic Connection and Cabling of the Measuring System
Charge amplifiers convert the electric charges yielded by
the dynamometer (pC) into proportional voltages that can
be displayed, recorded or processed with the usual
instruments.
Please note the following information when cabling the
measuring system
The connecting cables from the dynamometer to the
charge amplifier must have good insulation and be poor
in frictional electricity. Only the specified connecting
cables must be used
Conventional cables can be used for the connection
between the charge amplifiers and the indicators or
evaluation devices
All work on electrical connections must be carried out
carefully and tidily. Only remove the caps covering the
connections immediately before connecting a cable
