Floor Standing Electromechanical Testing Machines LFM-100 and 125 kN This Series offers ultra-high flexibility and modularity making this model the perfect platform for a wide spectrum of users and applications ranging from demanding research projects to high-volume quality control. These floor-standing, state-of-the-art testing systems using the latest technology, as all of our testing machines, providing uncompromising quality and therefore representing a range of accurate and reliable testing machines. Typical application for this medium load, rigid 4-column systems, include testing of metals & alloys, fasteners, composite materials, forgings, joints, geotextiles and others. The LFM Test Systems are well suited for digital closed-loop testing in force, stress, displacement, strain and any other control modes including calculated, virtual channels. Compatible with a wide range of grips & fixtures, extensometers and other accessories these testing machines perform tensile, compression, flex/bend, shear, peel and other mechanical tests at ambient and non-ambient temperatures. Key Features • Rigid machine frame with high stiffness providing superior axial and lateral stiffness and guarantees robust, durable and long-term operation • Two precise, backlash-free ball screw assembly provides high load capacity, high positioning accuracy and repeatability • Two Extruded aluminium profiles with T-slots allow the easy mounting of any accessory • Controlled by a brush-less high responsive, maintenance-free AC servomotor to drive the mobile traverse (crosshead) providing faster starts and stops, best control, and highest accuracy at a extremely low noise level • AC servomotor provides continuous high test speed up to nominal force for continuously operation • Additional two (2) guiding columns for increased lateral stiffness • Spindles (ball-screws) with flange double-nut, sealed and greased for long maintenance intervals • Spindle, flange double-nut and ball-screw shaft grinded pairwise for reduced pitch error • On-point, in-service lubrication • Spindle and column protection (are length over full travel long are protected by • Oil- and moisture-resistant), sealed bellows made from polyester fabric, coated with polyurethane inside and out side • Precision strain gauge load cell mounted on (moveable) crosshead optionally available Alignment Fixture mounted between crosshead and load cell with related alignment verification equipment • Digital movable crosshead encoder for high resolution, high accurate crosshead measurement and closed loop control • Adjustable end-stops in both (UP/DOWN) directions for the optimal protection of operator, test sample and machine • End-stops for maximum travel protection • Durable structured coating (or paint) • Use of high quality components and assemblies of reputable companies • Bolts for machine lifting • Adjustable feet for levelling the testing machine • The machine is free-standing on shock absorbers, requiring no special foundations • Two Extruded aluminium profiles with T-slots allow the easy mounting of any accessories
