nnnnNorbar is the only torque equipment manufacturer able to offer tool and
nnnninstrument recalibration services to the original factory standard on four
nnnncontinents. The accredited laboratories in Australia, USA and Singapore
nnnnuse the same equipment and procedures as the factory's UKAS accredited
nnnnlaboratory in the UK. A further Norbar laboratory is in operation in
nnnnShanghai.

nnnnTORQUE CALIBRATION
nnnnNorbar's torque calibration instruments are trusted to be the equipment of choice for military
nnnnairlines and equipment manufacturers around the world.
nnnnThe torque measurement range starts with simple to use but accurate testers calledTruCheck™ that
nnnncan be sited line side in production facilities or in aircraft hangers. The main purpose of these testers
nnnnis to provide a confidence check at the point of wrench use. The measurement range progresses in
nnnnsophistication and accuracy through to the flagship TBox™ instrument TBox together with its PC
nnnnbased Torque Data Management Software (TDMS), provides a complete torque audit and torque
nnnntool data management solution.
nnnnAerospace customers often require control over the entire calibration hierarchy for their torque
nnnnmeasurement equipment Norbar have supplied several airlines with beam and weight calibration
nnnnmaster systems forthe calibration of torque measurement devices.
nnnnAll Norbar torque transducers from 0.005 N.m 108,500 N.m are supplied wth a UKAS accredited
nnnncalibration certificate. Since 2004 the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have
nnnnconfirmed to the FAA that certificates issued by UKAS accredited laboratories can be regarded as
nnnnequivalentto NIST traceable. If clarification is required on this, please check on wvwvtorquecalibration,
nnnncom or consult Norbar
nnnnTORQUE CALIBRATION SERVICES
nnnnNorbar have established a worldwide network of torque calibration laboratories wth third party
nnnnaccreditation by a government approved body These laboratories are located in UK (accredited
nnnnby UKAS), Australia (NATA), USA (NVLAP), Singapore (SAC-SINGLAS) and China (TAF). All of
nnnnthe laboratories are equipped to the same standard as the UK factory based laboratory ensuring
nnnnconsistency and repeatability between the laboratories. All of the laboratories operate to BS EN
nnnnISO/IEC 17025:2005 which sets the standard forthe technical competence of laboratories.
nnnnIn addition to offering calibration of torque transducers, Norbar can provide calibration for
nnnnmany ofthe special tools provided for aircraft maintenance by companies such as Hydratight
nnnnSweeney and Power-Dyne,
nnnnUSM - ULTRASONIC BOLT LOAD
nnnnMEASUREMENT
nnnnUSM-3 uses ultrasound to measure the change in length of bolts during
nnnnand after the tightening process. Unlike indirect methods of tension
nnnncontrol such as torque or torque and angle, ultrasonic measurement
nnnnof bolt load or elongation in situ on the actual joint stack-up means
nnnnsignificantly more accurate bolt tension without costly strain gauging or
nnnnthe introduction of devices which will change the joint stiffness or the
nnnnjoint stack-up height The net effect of the numerous causes of friction
nnnnvariations which determine the torque versus tension relationship can
nnnnbe empirically analysed; likewise, longterm issues such as measuring joint
nnnnrelaxation, gasket creep, sealant migration and performing post flight
nnnnanalysis are easily achievable.
nnnnThe ultimate accolade forthe USM was that after over one year of testing against
nnnncompetitive instruments at NASA's Stennis Space Center it was selected to replace the
nnnnaging fleet of instruments which had been used on over 40 safety critical applications on the Space
nnnnShuttle Main Engines (SSME). Norbar's USM family of instruments has been selected for use on
nnnnultra-critical applications found on the Space Shuttle, expendable launch vehicles and satellites. These
nnnninclude: Delta 4 Launch Vehicles; SSME High Pressure LOX & Fuel Turbopumps, Main Combustion
nnnnChamber to Powerhead and HP Ducting likewise, USM-3 was used forthe Harcipoint bolts, Keel
nnnnbolts and Trunnion bolts on the Spacelab Logistics Pallet (SLP) used for payload mounting on such
nnnnmissions as STS-123 (Dextre Robotics for ISS) and STS-125 (Hubble Space Telescope Servicing
nnnnMission 4).
