High Cycle Fatigue on multiple samples
The ElectroPuls 16-Station testing system performs high cycle fatigue testing on multiple samples simultaneously, with a fatigue-rated load cell included on each station. The fixture uses a carousel designed with high stiffness and low mass to enable high frequency testing and reduce test time.
Testing can be carried out in a clear, polycarbonate saline bath at up to 37°C and is controlled by the test software allowing temperature measurements to be recorded alongside your test results.
The entire carousel fixture can be lowered into and raised from the bath using the crosshead lift controls, allowing easy specimen inspection.
16 Synchronized Test Stations
A 33% improvement on capacity from our original design over a decade ago, now featuring 16 stations.
When testing at high frequencies, inertial effects from fixture mass can introduce errors in your data. Our new fixture is made from lightweight Titanium rather than Stainless-Steel and the design has been optimized to reduce weight.
Hollow pushrods and a tapered lower wheel further reduce the fixture weight while maintaining stiffness, allowing for testing at higher frequencies.
Using inert titanium gives you peace of mind when testing in saline solution.
