Homemade Ropebreak Dynamometer

2020

This project was a collaboration with my classmates Emily Folk, Kais Al Balkhi and Brendan Wilson.

The purpose of the dynamometer is to measure the torque and speed of a 5V DC brushless motor for various masses applied using the shrink of an elastic. Materials for the structure and tests were all found from home.
