The TM 115 unit is used to investigate in experiments the distribution of forces in the central force system. Based on the example of a crane boom, the forces that are created when load is applied by hanging weights are demonstrated. The member forces are indicated directly on the dynamometers integrated into the crane boom. The experiment can be assembled in numerous variants due to the flexible clamps. Uncomplicated usage and strong metal construction make the unit ideally suited to use for student experiments. Rubber feet ensure that the unit does not slip, handles make it easy to carry.
