Bifilar & Trifilar Apparatus | ProDynami – 1302
The Bifilar & Trifilar Apparatus ProDynami – 1302 studies pendulum oscillations using bifilar and trifilar suspension methods. This Bifilar And Trifilar Apparatus tests a stainless steel bar, disk cylinder, and hollow disk cylinder, each with quick-action clamped suspension cords up to 2000mm. It demonstrates both translational and rotary pendulum behavior for determining center of inertia. A full accessory set including stopwatch and measuring scale is included.
The Bifilar & Trifilar Apparatus ProDynami – 1302 allows the user to study oscillations on pendulums with bifilar and trifilar suspension. This Bifilar And Trifilar Apparatus hangs a rectangle bar, disk cylinder, or hollow disk cylinder made of stainless steel from a wall mounted plate to place them in oscillation. It studies both translational and rotary pendulum behavior.
Product Overview
This apparatus allows the user to study the oscillations on pendulums with bifilar and trifilar suspension. For this purpose a rectangle bar, a disk cylinder, or a hollow disk cylinder made of stainless steel can be hung from a wall mounted plate and placed in oscillation.
The bodies used in the experiments have strong steel hooks for attachment to the suspension cords. The length of the cords can be rapidly changed and securely fixed using clamping screws. The beam can oscillate by translation in the plane of suspension like an ideal mathematical pendulum. The cylinder and the circular ring work as rotary pendulums on this Bifilar And Trifilar Apparatus.

Construction and Design
The Bifilar & Trifilar Apparatus ProDynami – 1302 hangs a rectangle bar, a disk cylinder, or a hollow disk cylinder, all made of stainless steel, from a wall mounted plate. Each body has strong steel hooks for attachment to the suspension cords. Suspension cord length can be rapidly changed and securely fixed using clamping screws, with a quick-action clamp supporting lengths up to 2000mm. The disk cylinder measures 160 x 19mm (D x h), with an inner diameter of 100mm, a mass of 3kg, and a height of 41mm. The hollow disk cylinder has an outer diameter of 160mm and a mass of 4kg. The beam oscillates by translation in the plane of suspension like an ideal mathematical pendulum, while the cylinder and circular ring work as rotary pendulums.
