Universal fatigue testing machine MTS 810

Trade name
Universal fatigue testing machine MTS 810
Technical description

A two-column universal servohydraulic testing machine capable of conducting single-axis static and fatigue tests under the control of force, displacement, or any analogue sensor used during testing (e.g., strain gauge, extensometer, etc.).

Exemplary applications:

  • determination of engineering and true stress-strain curves,
  • determination of monotonic material parameters,
  • static tests of three-point and four-point bending,
  • conducting of fatigue tests (Wöhler curve, Coffin-Manson curve),
  • cyclic strain curve determination,
  • fatigue life testing of structural elements and structural joints under an arbitrary sequence of axial loading,
  • fatigue crack growth testing in engineering materials and structural elements,
  • determining the static and dynamic characteristic of machine components (in the range of deformation rate up to 150 mm/sec).
