General Purpose Hydraulic Fatigue Test Systems

Servo-hydraulic systems are the workhorse of any laboratory. They can perform a wide variety of low and high cycle fatigue, crack propagation, fracture toughness and other dynamic tests. Each system can be readily configured with appropriate sized servo valve, manifold and hydraulic power unit to suit the particular application. All systems are equipped with the advanced features of the state-of-the-art digital controller, operator control panel and load cells. The user-friendly application software provides the backbone for running many dynamic tests. Other application specific software modules, such as LCF3 or Fracture Mechanics Suite, allows other standardized tests to be run. These dynamic systems with appropriate accessories, are ideal for running a variety of static tensile, compression, flexure, peel, tear and friction tests.
