MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541123630 A) filed by Nitte, Mangaluru, Karnataka, on Dec. 8, 2025, for 'method and system for three-axis force measurement.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Muralidhara; and Mr. Niranjan Sharma K V.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Disclosed herein is a three-axis force measurement system (100) for measuring cutting forces during machining operations, comprising a three-axis force measurement apparatus (200) configured to measure forces in X, Y, and Z directions, wherein the apparatus (200) includes a plurality of single-axis load cells (206) strategically arranged with two X-axis load cells, two Y-axis load cells, and one Z-axis load cell, a signal amplifier (104) for amplifying signals, a microcontroller (106) for real-time signal processing, and a user device (108) for displaying force measurements. The apparatus (200) features innovative linear guides (214) and linear slides (216) providing superior force isolation between measurement axes, eliminating cross-coupling effects, while weight balancing springs (210) compensate for gravitational forces to ensure accurate Z-axis measurements of dynamic machining forces only. The system provides cost-effective, accurate three-dimensional force measurement capabilities suitable for academic-research, small-scale manufacturing, and diverse machining applications."
