A complete testing system with hydraulic power pack

The HC Compact is a complete testing system with an extremely small space requirement. The low noise power pack forms the base support for the test frame, which reduces the machine’s footprint to a minimum.

The HC Compact testing machine is available in two sizes.

  • The HC Compact 10/25 kN is designed for fatigue tests on smaller components, down to and including biomedical tests. The machine is equipped with a T-slotted platform and the testing actuator is therefore located in the upper crosshead.
  • The HC Compact 50/100 kN is adapted for a full range of accessories for tests on composites, with which both static and dynamic testing can be performed. Due to the high stiffness of the load frame and easy connection of a high-temperature furnace, this machine is also optimally suited for LCF tests.

A temperature chamber can be installed on both models without a lot of effort.

Advantages of the HC Compact 10/25 kN

  • Space-saving testing system with integrated hydraulic power-pack.
  • Extra-quiet low-noise power pack.
  • The entire test, together with set-up and control of automatic extensometers and specimen grips, is run via the display-equipped remote control unit.
  • 2­column frame for dynamic tests up to 25kN with testing actuator installed in upper crosshead.
  • Suitable for 10 kN and 25 kN axial actuators.
  • Hydrostatic-bearing, sealless actuator for virtually frictionless and maintenance-free operation.
  • Hard-chromed T-slotted platform and columns for tests in corrosive media.
  • Wide range of accessories: temperature chamber, compression platens, specimen grips, flexure test kit etc.
  • Optional hydraulic adjustment for easy positioning of upper crosshead.
  • Safety housing for compliance with CE Machinery Directive, depending on application.

Common fatigue tests

Materials and components may fail prematurely under oscillating loads. For this reason, the behavior of materials under alternating mechanical loading is an important decision criterion, for which the necessary data are obtained through testing.

There are two categories of fatigue in materials testing:

Low cycle fatigue (LCF) test
ISO 12106, ASTM E606
to Low cycle fatigue (LCF) test
High Cycle Fatigue Test / S-N Test
DIN 50100
to High Cycle Fatigue Test / S-N Test
