  Torsion Tester 30 Nm

  Using this unit, metal test bars are twisted to destruction. The test moment and the angle of twist are recorded during this process. Test bars made of different materials with varying lengths are included. The test moment is applied manually using a hand wheel and a worm drive. Measurement is performed with a strain gauge torsion shaft, the deformation of which is compensated. The measurement can be read off directly in Nm on a digital display on the measuring amplifier. For adaption to different length specimens, the measurement jig can be slid along the stiff frame. Using a calibration unit at the start of the experiment, it is possible to generate a defined torque. The angle of twist is determined using a graduated scale and and a revolutions counter. Commercially available 1/2″ square drive sockets, 17mm across flats, are used as specimen holders.

  Universal Testing Frame 400kN

  This testing frame is primarily used for loading experiments on components from steelwork and civil engineering. It is specially designed for large components in 1:1 scale. The design with its double frame and intermediate space permits specimens longer than the size of the frame opening to be investigated. It this way the possible uses of the testing frame are almost unlimited. The frame components are manufactured from U section St52. The corners of the frame are formed by joints rigid to bending, each is fastened together with 9 high-strength bolts. The testing frame is delivered in pre-assembled modules; it is assembled on site and placed on four adjustable, vibration damping bearings. The hydraulic ram systems available as accessories are on rollers and can be positioned as required within the frame.

  Shearing Force and Bending Moment Apparatus

  This demonstration unit facilitates the experimental investigation of the progression of the bending moment and shearing forces on a bar subject to point loads. In addition, the section principle commonly used in mechanics can be demonstrated. Due to the use of a low friction joint with two degrees of freedom at 1/3 of the span and two dynamometers, the measurements can be recorded directly from the bar. The deflection of the bar as result of the travel of the dynamometers and the horizontal alignment can be compensated and regulated using two adjustment bolts. The bar is loaded with graduated sets of weights that can be attached at any point on the bar.

  Forces in Various Single Plane Trusses

  This set enables the distribution of the forces in various plane trusses to be investigated using the universal test frame . A useful range of member lengths saves time-consuming adjustment. The members can be quickly and sturdily connected to joint discs using special snap action connectors. For the measurement of the force, all members are equipped with strain gauge bridges. The measuring amplifier is required to display the forces in the members and to further process the measured values on a PC. A set of cables to connect strain gauges and the amplifier is included. The trusses can be loaded using a spindle drive with a ring dynamometer and strain gauge.
