Typical application for this high force systems includes testing of metals and alloys, fasteners, bolts, plate steels, advanced composites and
Civil-, Aerospace-, Automotive-, Rails or Marine structures and components.

Key Features

• Rigid 6-column machine frame with high stiffness providing superior axial and lateral stiffness and guarantees robust, durable and long-term operation
• High machine stiffness and appropriate machine mass reduces shock at sample failure and provides smooth breaking
• Two high resolution ball screws driven with pre-stressed ball nuts and low backlash reducing gear system provides high load capacity and high mechanical resolution
• Spindle with flange double-nut, sealed and greased for long maintenance intervals
• Spindle, flange double-nut and ball-screw shaft grinded pairwise for reduced pitch error
• Controlled by a brush-less high responsive, maintenance-free and low noise AC servomotor to drive the mobile traverse guarantees positioning accuracy and repeatability
• AC servomotor provides continuous high test speed up to nominal force for continuous operation
• Ball Screws (spindles) protection over full travel through oil- and moisture-resistant, sealed bellows made from polyester fabric, coated with polyurethane inside and out side
• Additional four (4) hardened and chromium plated guiding columns for increased lateral stiffness
• Adjustable end-stops in both (UP/DOWN) directions for the best protection of operator, test sample and machine
• End stops for maximum travel protection
• One-point spindle lubrication
  Precision strain gauge load cell mounted on (movable) crosshead
• Alignment fixtures mounted between crosshead and load cell with related alignment verification equipment optionally available
• Electrical cabinet with air-fan, complete power supply and control module, relays etc. mounted on rear side of machine’s base
• Emergency stop direct at the machine
• Durable structured coating (paint)
• Use of high quality components and assemblies of reputable companies
• Bolts for machine lifting
• Adjustable feet for leveling the testing machine
• The machine is free-standing on shock absorbers, requiring no special foundations
• Ergonomic working height
