Testing machines for torsion testing are mainly used in science, research and education, in test laboratories and in production control during manufacturing.
Torsion testing machines are used to determine the torque load of specimens of different materials in static tests, e.g:
- plastics, composite materials
- screws, cardan shafts
- Twist tests on wires according to DIN ISO7800 and ASTM A938 as well as alternating twist tests on wires according to DIN ISO 9649
- Calibration of torque sensors
The torsion tester Inspekt T-5000H is designed for single-axis torsion tests. A maximum torque of 5000Nm at a rotational speed of 2 revolutions per minute can be realized. The torsion axis is arranged horizontally. The system is based on a base frame made of welded steel sections. Thus a high torsional stiffness is achieved.
The working area is closed by a protective hood, which is locked by means of a magnetic tumbler during the test operation. The torque transducer is adapted on the right sliding side. The positioning is done manually in T-slots. The sample to be tested is clamped between the left and right side.
Dimensions:
- Device (with base frame, without protective cover): 1350mm x 2350mm x 850mm (HxWxD)
- Clamping range: approx. Ø350mm,
- max. test space length between the mounting flanges: 1000mm
