Abstract
The paper presents a device for calibrating microforce sensors. The principle of operation of the calibrator is based on the reversed principle of operation of the current balance – the ampere standard. The design of the device is described in detail. During the implementation of the project, minor corrections were made in project, what has been described. The final stage was to perform the calibration of the device with an analytical balance. Additionally, the experimental microforce sensor tests confirmed the correctness of the device operation.
