About This Product
Running the main spindle at different speeds from the variable speed motor, students read the lift of each governor on the scale and pointer and work out its characteristics. The Hartnell, Porter and Proell assemblies can then be compared for sensitiveness, stability and governor effort on this THEORY OF MACHINE LAB unit. Sliding weights for the Porter and Proell governors and a spring compression adjustment arrangement complete this set of engineering educational equipments in India for governor studies.
