MTS – servo-hydraulic testing machine up to 500 kN with built-in fiber-metal composite sample for crack propagation tests

Universal testing machine Inspekt Table 50 with contact extensometer
Equipment
- Notched impact test pendulum (150 J, 300 J)
- Servohydraulic testing machines (100 kN, 500 kN)
- Universal testing machine (50 kN)
- Tension-torsion test bench (±8 kNm, ±50 °; ±40 kN, ±50 mm)
- Rotating bending test bench (reversed bending)
- Cavitation test bench
- Wear resistance test bench (pin/bush)
- Surface roughness measurement
- Mobile measuring amplifier, i.a. for strain, force or temperature measurements
- Digital image correlation (DIC) for planar measurement of deformations and strains on components and samples (LIMESS Q400)
Applications
- Notch impact bar tests at different temperatures
- Tension, compression, and bending tests (-150 to 600 °C)
- Tests under torsion and/ or combined tension - torsion loading
- Determination of the surface strain by means of extensometer, strain gauge and digital image correlation
- Fatigue testing of material samples and components (Wöhler curve, cyclic stress-strain-curve) under operational conditions and at temperatures up to 900°C
- Fracture mechanics (fracture toughness, fatigue crack resistance curves, fatigue crack growth)
- Wear resistance tests (cavitation, cyclic relative movement of a tribological pairing)
- Measurement of roughness, acoustic emission analysis, thermography
