Toy Safety Test Fixtures: Torque, Tension and Drop
Approx. component budget: Rs. 5,000 - 9,000
Objective
Check how toy parts hold up to torque, tension and drop tests and see how results change with design details.
What you will build
Simple fixtures: a torque gauge head and holder, a tension pull rig with a load cell, a drop frame, and a small-parts cylinder gauge made to the size given in the standard you follow.
Results you can expect
- Torque and pull force at failure for parts such as wheels
- Eyes and caps
- Drop-test damage log
- Small-part pass/fail
- Test report format
What you will learn
Toy safety testing basics, test fixtures, force and torque measurement, and report writing.
Tools and notes
Load cell + HX711, torque gauge, Excel. For learning only and not a replacement for certified testing.
Resume points from this project
- Built and tested Toy Safety Test Fixtures: Torque, Tension and Drop; objective: check how toy parts hold up to torque, tension and drop tests and see how results change with design details.
- Measured and analysed torque and pull force at failure for parts such as wheels and eyes and caps; wrote the report and presented the results in a viva. Add your own numbers: [x].
Replace [x] with your own measured results. Write only what you really did.
