High capacity multipurpose test rig up to 8000kN

Features

Measured quantities include:

 

  • Tensile force (load cells)
  • Strains in separate sections of the specimen and global strain (LVDT’s)
  • Crack Mouth Opening Displacement CMOD (clip gauge)

 

If desired, the 2500 kN load frame can be used as a tribotester by placing a horizontal clamp consisting of 2 end plates, four load
bars and 6 pistons inside the load frame.
