The ideal testing machine for force and strain controlled long-term tests
The versatile lever arm creep testing system with pretensioned spring was developed for classic and advanced creep tests with constant or stepped force application and long-term tests up to 100,000 hours. Wear-free flexible joints guarantee optimal lever arm mounting and precise force application in a wide load range.
The Kappa LA Spring lever arm creep testing machine offers a wide range of applications in ambient and high-temperature conditions:
- Crack growth/widening tests
- Determination of hydrogen embrittlement
- Stepless load definition and load block tests possible
- Relaxation tests
- Creep tests up to break:
- Creep rupture
- Stress rupture - Classic creep tests
