HIGH STRAIN RATE ROTATIONAL SYSTEMS
High-speed dynamic tests are used to simulate automobile accidents, aircraft crashes, munitions explosions, and other high-impact events. The types of tests are both compression and tension tests.
The fracture behavior of many materials depends on several factors including the speed of the applied load. High-speed tensile tests provide characterization of the tensile properties of metals and plastics at high speed. These parameters are particularly significant for crash simulations.
No maintenance
High reliability
High efficiency
Wide range of use
Simple installation
Benefits
HTM high-speed testing machines can be widely used for testing plastics. They are characterized by high test speeds and wide force ranges and can be used flexibly in tensile and compression tests. In addition, they can be equipped with a climatic chamber to perform tests at different temperatures.
- Created for HCF tests [High Cycles Fatigue]
- Designed to work in multiactuator mode or alone.
- Dynamic loads range up to 200kN
- Zero maintenance and easy installation
- Low energy consuming
- Highly reliable test.
ELECTRODYNAMIC ACTUATORS WITH LINEAR MOTORS FOR HIGH STRAIN RATE TESTING
In the development of electrodynamic axes, we have created a new series of machines for very high dynamic applications. This new range of machines, all based on linear motors, is divided into two families: HUD and XUD.
The former is also suitable for endurance tests thanks to its high continuous dynamic forces, the latter is dedicated to short-duration tests with the achievement of higher accelerations. These machines enjoy, as is our tradition, the advantages inherent in electric machines.
