Electric test bench

fatiguematerialmechanical

Main functionsThis testing machine allows to estimate the fatigue life of components and/or finished products. Fatigue tests characterize the ability of a material or product to withstand cyclical loading in order to best reproduce the operating conditions of the part.This bench makes it possible to apply to the tested product combined tensile and torsion tests up to its fatigue failure, in particular for testing the mechanical resistance of electric cables. Operating modeThe sample to be tested is fixed on one side to a rotary-driven concentric chuck and at its other end is attached to a chuck actuated in translation. At each end of the cable tested, double chucks ensure the clamping of the outer sheath on one chuck and the inside of the cable on the other chuck. The machine can perform combined traction and torsional cycles with the force, torque, position or angle servo-control.
