The WANCE ETM-B Series Dual Column Table Top Universal Testing Machine is a versatile, high-performance testing machine designed for a wide range of material testing applications. Its dual-column configuration offers enhanced stability and precision, making it suitable for testing various materials in laboratory settings. Below are its key applications:
Applications:
Tensile Testing:
- Measures the material’s response to stretching forces, providing data on tensile strength, elongation, and yield point. This test is crucial for materials like metals, polymers, textiles, and elastomers.
Compression Testing:
- Assesses how materials perform under compressive forces. The machine can measure compressive strength, modulus, and deformation, making it ideal for materials like rubbers, plastics, and foams.
3/4-Point Bend Testing:
- Evaluates the bending properties of materials, such as flexural strength and stiffness. This is important for materials like plastics, metals, wood, and composites.
Cyclic Load Applications:
- Simulates repetitive loading and unloading cycles, which is critical for studying the fatigue life of materials. This feature is commonly used in automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries for testing materials under real-world conditions.
Peel, Tear, Friction, and Relaxation Testing:
- Peel Testing: Evaluates the adhesive strength of materials, such as tapes, labels, and bonded components.
- Tear Testing: Assesses the resistance of materials like films, textiles, and rubbers to tearing forces.
- Friction Testing: Measures the coefficient of friction between different surfaces, useful for packaging materials, plastics, and films.
- Relaxation Testing: Monitors how materials relax under constant strain over time, which is useful for testing elastomers and polymers.
Material-Specific Testing:
- Adhesives: For measuring bonding strength and peel resistance.
- Biomaterials: Testing the mechanical properties of biological materials for use in medical devices and implants.
- Elastomers and Rubbers: Measures flexibility, elasticity, and long-term durability.
- Films and Packaging: Determines the strength, tear resistance, and stretchability of thin materials used in packaging.
- Plastics and Polymers: Tests for tensile strength, deformation, and fatigue resistance.
- Textiles: Evaluates fabric strength, tear resistance, and elongation.
- Metals and Metal Strips: Assesses tensile properties, bending strength, and elongation of metals.
- Foils and Fibers: Tests for flexibility, strength, and elongation properties.
