Sector of activity
Main functions
Test machines are used to estimate the fatigue life of components and/or finished products. Fatigue tests characterize the ability of a material or product to withstand cyclic loading, in order to reproduce the part’s operating conditions as closely as possible. The tension/compression fatigue test bench enables parts to be tested in tension/compression, with slow or rapid cycling (fatigue testing).
Operating mode
After positioning the part to be tested, the user defines a compression or tension test program, consisting of a sequence of function blocks. Each function performs force- or position-controlled trapezoidal or sinusoidal cycles at an adjustable frequency. The compression/tensile test is automatically stopped if the part under test breaks.
Robust electric cylinder
Electric servo jack with integrated load cell designed for optimum endurance life.
Operator safety
User protection by glass door. Opening the door automatically stops the test.
Tension and compression fatigue test bench
The tension/compression fatigue test bench enables parts to be tested in tension/compression, with slow or rapid cycling (fatigue testing).

Tension and Compression Fatigue Bench
Tensile fatigue test bench on stirrups. The test bench is used to estimate the caliper’s fatigue life. Fatigue tests characterize the stirrup’s ability to withstand cyclic loading, in order to reproduce operating conditions as closely as possible.
