Motorised Gyroscope Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in Kenya

Motorised Gyroscope Apparatus

The weight of the motor is balanced by another weight, which is on either side of the rotor.  

The apparatus consists of a rotor mounted in bearings.

This rotor is free to rotate about.

Axis of precession.

The rotor is connected to the variable speed motor.  

Axis of gyroscopic couple.

Its own axis i.e. axis of spin.

By putting weights on the weight platform torque can be supplied to rotor, which is also called gyroscopic couple.

Specifications:-

Rotor dia. 250mm free about 3 axis of rotation driven by variable speed motor.

Dimmerstat to control the motor speed.

Stopwatch to measure the angular speed about the axis of precession.

Weights  0.2 kg, 0.5 kg and 1 kg.

A technical manual accompanies the unit.

Services required:-

Tachometer for speed measurement (can be supplied at extra cost).

220v stabilized AC supply with earthing connection.

Bench area – 0.5 x 0.5m at working height.
