Durability DFT System

This hydraulically driven single station DFT system is typically used in an industrial R&D lab where the durability of the newly developed parts is ensured to be in conformance with design specifications. The maximum test velocity can be up to 4.5 m/s, peak velocity up to 7 m/s and dynamic force capacity up to 35 kN.

Features

  • Self-aligning automatically operated pneumatic grips and fixtures to hold the test parts.
  • Facility to simultaneously test more parts maximum up to 6.
  • Facility to simultaneously apply side loads on the multiple parts.
  • Facility to integrate cooling system to cool parts heated during the durability tests.
  • Safety interlocks for the protection of operator, test sample and equipment.
  • Servo output correction to achieve the high-fidelity velocity sine wave.
  • Two column load frame with actuator mounted on bottom crosshead or,
  • Four column load frame with T-slotted base for specimen mounting and actuator mounted on top crosshead
  • Hydrostatic actuators with anti-rotation assembly
  • Clevis grips for simultaneously testing multiple specimens
  • Temperature measurement of shox using thermocouples with optional test hold or slow cycling for cooling
  • Side load actuators up to 700 kg mounted between specimens
  • Air cooling facility for specimens during durability cycle up to 2 m/s
  • Closed loop water cooling facility for specimens during durability cycle up to 7 m/s
