Abstract
A moment calibrating apparatus () is provided with an elongated force transmitting member () for transmitting a force applied to the end portion thereof to a multi-component force gauge (), a load applying mechanism () for applying a load without changing the direction of the force along a direction perpendicular to said end portion, and a calculation unit () for calculating a true moment free from the effect of a perpendicular load on the basis of the moment value around the axis in the direction orthogonal to the perpendicular direction, measured by the multi-component force gauge () under the condition that said perpendicular load along the direction perpendicular to said end portion is applied by the load applying mechanism (), wherein a moment calibration of the multi-component force gauge () is performed using said true moment calculated by the calculation unit ().
