Servo Hydraulic Universal Testing System 600kN / 1000kN Half-opened tensile jaw seat
The newly designed half-opened tensile jaw seats are built to avoid deformation by drastically increasing the strength of the jaw mouth area. This unique feature delivers high quality and repeatable test results and unforeseen cost savings for long-term operation.
Load Cell directly measuring testing force
For testing force measuring, we use a high precision load cell for direct measurement.
The test accuracy is 0.5 class, which means ±0.5% of the reading value.
Competitor brands, typically use oil pressure sensor, which offers indirect measurements, therefore the test accuracy goes down to class 1 or ±1% of the reading value.
For the sealing method of the oil cylinder, we adopt oil clearance sealing technology. This method offers the advantages of testing force unaffected by the friction, long life and stable working performance.
When the clearance-sealed cylinder piston is loading with pressure, the clearance between the cylinder and the piston will be filled with hydraulic oil, forming an oil film. When the piston rises or falls, this creates a virtual free fall, unaffected by friction.
Typically, other brands utilize an O-ring seal in the oil cylinder, which wears over time. It is not convenient for the end-user to replace it.
High quality tensile jaw for rebar tensile test
It uses wedge type hydraulic operated tensile grip. The system is controlled by press of a button.
It uses high strength alloy steel 20CrMnTi material to make the tensile jaw. It is developed by strictly following a series of working procedure, like blanking, forging & hammering, carburizing, rough milling, grinding, sawing, re-milling, quenching, blueing, grinding, etc.
The teeth have been carburized two times with layer 1.7- 2.2mm, 61-65 HRC. In this case, the quality is guaranteed. The life of this tensile jaw is maximized.
