Interlaken Servo press hydraulic 90° Bend Tester Machines The Interlaken 90° Bend Tester Press Machine is an essential tool for industries and labs that require precision bending tests, reliable material evaluation, and enhanced quality assurance.
This machine applies a controlled bending force to the test specimen using a robust press mechanism. The specimen is bent to a precise 90° angle, and the machine helps assess critical parameters such as springback, ductility, deformation, and material strength. It is widely used in industries like automotive, appliance manufacturing, metal fabrication, construction, and coatings, where accurate bending performance is essential.
Interlaken hydroforming press machines are available in a wide range of tonnage capacities starting from small laboratory systems around 50 tons to heavy industrial presses exceeding 2000 tons. These systems support high-pressure forming operations typically ranging from several hundred bar to above 4000 bar depending on application requirements. The machines are compatible with a wide range of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, titanium, copper, and special high-strength alloys. Tube diameter, wall thickness, stroke length, and press bed size can be custom engineered as per customer requirements. The control system supports PLC or CNC-based integration with real-time pressure, force, displacement, and cycle monitoring.
- Material quality verification for automotive panels, appliance parts, and structural components.
- R&D testing for new alloys, coated materials, and laminated sheets.
- Production quality control to ensure consistent bend performance.
- Compliance testing for industry standards and customer specifications.
