Universal Testing Machine UP 500 AK-2DH

For high stressed hot-going components, it is of particular importance to consider cyclical loads. Different viscoplastic material models are needed for mathematical prediction of their lifetime. In order to determine the material parameters of those models, describing the material behaviour under operating conditions, appropriate experiments must be carried out at elevated temperatures and cyclic loading.

For this purpose, the UP500 testing machine was built by FORM + TEST.

    Dynamic Testing at elevated Temperatures

    With the UP 500, Form+Test supports material research of new materials at a renowned Russian university. The test machine was designed according to the customer's requirements in terms of machine frames and machine performance. Samples and even entire components can be tested at up to 10 Hz and 500 kN at up to 500°C. The climate chamber can be easily moved into and out of the rehearsal room. To ensure that the machine itself stays cool, the load strand is equipped with a separate cooling circuit. Simply a turn-key solution by FORM+TEST.
