Crack growth tester FT 3000 C-H

fatiguefor rubberindustrial

The instrument is designed for continuous operation in applications such compound and material development as wellas in-process quality control in rubber plants and other areas requiring dynamic testing of rubber samples. State of the art fatigue testing and lifecycle simulation The FT 3000 is a high-end, direct linear drive fatigue tester of advanced design; providing a full test which indicates material properties such flex cracking/crack growth test and tension fatigue test in accordance with: ISO 132, 6943, ASTM D 430-B , ASTM D 813, DIN 53 522 -1/2/3. The instrument is designed for continuous operation in compound / material research & development laboratories as well as industrial applications like in-process quality control in rubber plants requiring repetitive testing of rubber samples to assess dynamic material performance properties. Especially due to the unique advanced linear motor design, optional arbitrary waveform programming and CCD camera data acquisition system, the machine can easily be set-up and adapted to individual customer testing needs. Precisely controlled thermal environment The sample holding system is located in a thermal chamber. This 120 liter heating and cooling chamber permits temperatures between -40 °C and +180°C, covering almost all possible application environments. Due to the unique triple stage closed loop chiller and compressor design, a superior temperature uniformity of +/-1°C is achieved with no gases or external media required for the cooling process.
