Spring testing instrument evaluates tension, compression.(TESTING/CHARACTERIZATION)(Brief article)
Advanced Materials & Processes, May, 2007
A motor-driven spring testing system designed to evaluate tension and compression springs and spring-type products has been introduced by Instron, Norwood, Mass. The SF1390 Series features a robust floor standing design with two lead screws and two precision guide columns for maximum stiffness.
A servo drive controls the frame's loading crosshead for fully automatic load testing with speeds up to 1000 mm/min. It is available in two frame capacities: 50 kN (11,250 lbf) and 100 kN (22,500 lbf). The heavy-duty spring testing load cells incorporate mechanical overload stops and at least 300% overload capacity, minimizing the chance of load cell damage during overload conditions. Additionally, height errors due to machine and load cell deflection are automatically...
