The portal solution for metals testing
The roboTest P (portal) robotic testing system is used for fully automated tensile tests on metal specimens (e.g. to ISO 6892).
Components and accessories
Feeding
The feed axis automatically and safely transports specimens up to 10 kg. For manual tests, the specimen gripper can be driven to the side, making the materials testing machine accessible to the operator.
Specimen magazine
The magazine holds up to 400 specimens, depending on specimen dimensions. The operator fills the specimen magazine in the safe area of the system. Filling can also be performed in test mode.
ID reader
Use of an optional barcode or 2D code reader eliminates errors in specimen identification. Alternatively, the specimen data (identification number, width, thickness, etc.) can be entered on a PC.
Measurement of the specimen cross-section
The automated cross-section measurement for determining the specimen thickness and width is taken at one or three points on the specimen. Use of a standard allows the cross-section measuring device to be adjusted, ensuring reproducible test results.
Coating thickness measurement
The coating thickness can be automatically measured, for example for painted or galvanized specimens.
Hardness measurement
A hardness measuring device can be optionally integrated into the robotic testing system.
Surface roughness measurement
In addition, the surface roughness can be determined by using an optional roughness measuring device.
Measurement of reduction in area
Two cameras record the specimen during the test. After break, the software aligns the two specimen halves and joins them together.
Scale
A precision scale allows for exact determination of the specimen weight.
Length measurement
The length is measured using a light barrier.
