Field of Application
The MDT-500 low-load testing machine can be universally
used for a multitude of testing procedures on a whole variety of
materials and components. The powerful software allows quick and
easy analysis of the measurement results.
Typical areas for use are:
• |
Tension and pressure tests for the assessment of
materials |
• |
Load tests for metal and plastic components
|
• |
The gauging of springs and of elastic components |
• |
The carrying out of cycle-based wear tests |
• |
3-point bending tests with special specimen holders
(optional) |
• |
Dynamic mechanical analysis of specimens showing
complex coefficients of elasticity, Wöhler curves and also
detection of cracks under cyclical long-term loading
(optional) |
Functional principle
A servo motor transfers a rotational motion to two
pre-tensioned bullet spindles which are free from float. These
move the pick-up sensors in a horizontal direction by up to 50 mm.
A calibrated force sensor is coupled with a distance meter so that
the change in length of the force sensor does not influence the
result, and no corrections are required.
The software which is included makes it simple to
control the machine. Comprehensive analysis functions simulate a
whole variety of loadings and show the results in graph form.
Presentations and results documents can easily be drawn up
via the integrated report function.
A broad range of accessories allows the use of the
machine for a whole variety of tasks with optimal functional range
in each case. Various tensioning media and customer-specific
specimen holders are for instance available.
Chief advantages
• |
A high level of reproducibility of the measurement
results by means of a highly accurate force and deflection
measuring system. |
• |
A long service life due to the stable design and use of
high-quality components. |
• |
Powerful software is included at no extra cost |
• |
The measurement result does not need to be corrected
because the change in length of the force sensor under loading
does not influence the result
