CREEP TEST SYSTEM

The creep testing machine is electromechanical, featuring up to 5 individually controlled load axes. The independent workstations make it ideal for diverse simultaneous testing tasks. One of the main advantages of the system is its flexibility, as it can conduct various tests on a wide range of specimens and materials. It can operate at ambient temperature, as well as under low and elevated temperatures with the addition of a climatic chamber.

Up to 5 independently controlled load axes in one frame
Steplessly adjustable force range of 20 N to 10 kN
Temperature range of -40 °C to +250 °C
User friendly test management via a graphical Test Center interface

Machine design

Central lead screw drive and precision guidance via two steel columns
Long stroke of 200 mm per load string
View window on the front
Interior illumination of temperature chamber for observing test progress
