Inston's servohydraulic systems serve as the workhorse in most laboratories. They can perform a wide range of low and high cycle fatigue, fracture toughness, crack propagation, and other dynamic tests. Each system can be easily configured with suitable sized servo valve, manifold and hydraulic power unit to match the particular application.
All systems are fitted with the advanced features of the 8800 digital controller, Console Software and Instron®’s unique fatigue-rated Dynacell™ load cells. The WaveMatrix™ Dynamic Testing Software provides the support for running a number of dynamic tests. Other application specific software modules, such as LCF3 or any of Instron’s Fracture Mechanics Suite, permits other standardized tests to be worked.
These dynamic systems, when integrated with Bluehill® and suitable accessories, are perfect for operating a range of static tensile, tear, flexure, peel, compression, and friction tests.
