Abstract: A rotational torsion tester, comprising: a first drive shaft; a second drive shaft; a load applying unit that applies a torsional load to a workpiece; at least one bearing unit including a first bearing unit that supports the load applying unit to be rotatable about a rotation axis; a rotation drive unit having a first electric motor that drives the second drive shaft and the load applying unit to rotate in phase; and a torque sensor that detects the torsional load, wherein the load applying unit comprises: a second electric motor that drives the first drive shaft; the torque sensor is attached to a part at which the first drive shaft is inserted into the shaft part; the torque sensor is disposed between a pair of first bearings; and the torque sensor includes a strain gauge adhered to a narrowed part to detect the torsional load.

Abstract: A control device including a simulation unit to simulate behaviors of a virtual mechanical system, and a drive control unit to control driving of servomotors based on the simulation results, is provided. The virtual mechanical system includes a first drive module, a first main shaft module connected to the first drive module, and a plurality of power transmission subsystems, each of which is connected to the first main shaft module and is associated with one of the servomotors respectively. Each of the power transmission subsystems includes an output module. The servomotor associated with the power transmission subsystem is driven according to a simulated result of input into the output module.

Abstract: A torsion tester including a plurality of driving units configured to connect with and rotate three or more input/output shafts of a test body, respectively, and a controller configured to control the plurality of driving units to be driven with one of individually-set rotational frequencies and individually-set torques, respectively.

Abstract: There is provided a hydraulic system, including an oil tank storing operating oil, a hydraulic actuator, and a hydraulic pump which draws the operating oil from the oil tank and supplies the operating oil to the hydraulic actuator. The hydraulic system is provided with an operating oil separating unit which is located at a midway point of a main tube sending the operating oil from the hydraulic pump to the hydraulic actuator and which separates a part of the operating oil supplied from the hydraulic pump to return the part of the operating oil to the oil tank. A universal testing machine including the hydraulic system is also provided.
