Tension test
Tensile test of metallic and composite materials at room or other temperature
Tension test
We offer:
- Experiment design
- Sampling and conditioning of metal and composite materials
- Tensile test at room temperature
- Tensile test at cold temperature (down to -150°C)
- Tensile test at elevated temperature (up to 900°C)
- Fracture surface analysis
- Statement of conformity to a specification
Equipment (selection):
- Instron electromechanical testing machine (max. static load up to 100 kN, crosshead displacement up to 1000 mm, load cells with ranges ±1 kN, ±10 kN, ±100 kN)
- Hydropuls Schenck servo-hydraulic machine (max. static load up to 250 kN, crosshead travel up to 100 mm)
- Inova servo-hydraulic machines (max. static loads up to 50 kN, 100 kN, and 200 kN, crosshead travel up to 100 mm)
- test conditioning chambers (test environment in the range -150°C ÷ 280°C)
- Climacell conditioning chamber (long-term environment of elevated temperature and humidity, typically 70°C at 85% r.h.)
- Kimo Instruments thermocouple loggers (specimen temperature measurement in the range -180°C ÷ 480°C)
- Micro-Epsilon infrared thermometer (specimen temperature measurement in the range 200°C ÷ 900°C)
- Mechanical axial and dual extensometers (measurement of specimen strain in the longitudinal and transverse axes)
- X-Sight optical extensometer (strain measurement and digital image correlation (DIC))
- mechanical and hydraulic jaws
