ELECTROMECHANICAL MACHINES

Our in-house designed electromechanical test systems cover a load range from 200 N to 268 kN and offer a wide range of speeds, high-quality load frames, and intelligent drive systems. Certified to ISO, EN and ASTM standards, these electromechanical machines guarantee high performance through the use of advanced measurement and control systems.

  • Designed for dynamic and fatigue tests (billions of cycles)
  • Improved actuator size-to-force ratio
  • Dynamic load range up to 200 kN
  • Operate in single or multi-actuator mode
  • Zero maintenance and easy installation
  • Low energy consumption

They are not just simple electromechanical actuators but true electrical machines for any type of application where high performance is required:

  • Material Testing Laboratories – used in conjunction with our standard facilities, controller and Test Center software, highly reliable and flexible testing machines are created that are perfect for testing all types of materials for static and dynamic characterisation.
  • Product test laboratories for quality certification – used in conjunction with the Test Center controller and software, they can be mounted alone or together with other actuators on structures built by STEP Lab or directly by the customer to perform even complex tests on products.
  • In the production line – for press-fit or quality control, the actuators’ combination of sophisticated control, dedicated quality control software and high-precision mechanical components make them perfect for repeated testing over large numbers of cycles even in H24 applications

EA025 – THE NEW ELECTRIC ACTUATOR

The new ‘EA025’ actuator has been designed to replace hydraulic systems, offering high performance, low maintenance costs and built to last for billions of cycles. With a dynamic load capacity of up to 25 kN, a test speed of 1600 mm/s and a frequency of 30 Hz, the EA025 is ideal for:

  • Material tests
  • Fatigue tests
  • Static tests

To meet all your testing needs, a wide range of accessories is available (extensometers, climatic chambers, torsion actuators and grips).
