Materials Laboratory with Data Capture

Product Description

Description: A hydraulic tensile and Brinell hardness testing machine.The machine tests any suitably shaped specimens of various materials. Thematerial must not exceed the maximum strength or hardness limits. The main parts of theequipment are: A load frame A display unit with a digital display of force A ball indenter for Brinell hardness tests An extensometer with a digital display for tensile tests The load frame is mounted on adjustable legs. To applyloads, students pump a handle connected to a hydraulic pump. The display unitshows force and works as an interface to send data to a suitable computer. Theextensometer has a digital display of extension and connects to the displayunit for data capture.Specification: Nett dimensions andweight: Load frame: 860 mm high, 490 mm wide, 615 mm front to back,and 44 kg with extensometer and Brinell spacer. Display unit: 50 mm high, 230 mm wide and 210 mm front to back,and 1 kg with power supply. Total net weight of all parts: 45 kg Bench Space Required: 800 mm by 800 mm with space nearby for a computer if datacapture is to be used.Approximate totalpacked dimensions and weight: 0.22 m3 and 50 kgLoad frame andextensometer: Maximum machine capacity: 40 kN (4 tonne) Maximum allowable tensile strength test: 850 MPa Maximum allowable hardness test: 450 BHN Extensometer: Gauge length 50 mm, maximum indicator travel 8mm Tensile specimens: Total length 210 mm, test length 77 mm and 6 mm outside diameter.Secured by threaded endsHardness specimens(five mild steel supplied): 25 mm diameter, 15 mm thick
