Detailed Description
The Microtest 5000W mechanical testing machine with load capacity of 5kN, has heated / cooled grips with temperature range of -150˚C to +600˚C. The grips are electrical heated or cooled by cooled nitrogen gas. Different travel speed can be selected. Also lower range loadcell can be used for lower force ranges.
Uses/Applications
Testing of small size tensile specimens in temperature range of about -150˚C to + 600˚C. For example miniature tensile specimen type SS-J3 or smaller as mentioned in STP 1576. Testing of small size bending specimens is also a possibility
Load capacity: 5kN, travel length: 20 mm. Temperature range grips: -150˚C to +600˚C. Strain measurement by DIC. Environment: vacuum
