DIN EN ISO 7500, class 0.5 / 1 Size:
choice of test load between: 1 … 100 kN Test fields:
DIN EN ISO 204 national guidelines from working groups Application:
creep rupture tests, creep tests with long test duration relaxation tests tests with constant load application creep behaviour by measuring with periodical test interruptions Frame:
stable profile load frame with high stiffness mounted on an underframe precise test lines can be adapted in any number platform for test set-up with space for heating and regulation the machine elements are screwed together free of play and are deformation-resistant all contact surfaces are machine-finished to achieve the greatest possible parallelism across the whole frame mounting plates for alignment and support Load:
deadweight with incremental weights using a lifting system built-in underneath. The highest production precision facilitates consistent load application with guaranteed long-term stabilityt Options / Accessories:
electro-mechanical or hydraulic load unit measurement and control of force and strain ?PROTEUS“ test software for test control and evaluation force and strain measuring system with suitable measuring rods high temperature ovens tensioning equipment with adapters for differing specimen dimensions
