Zwick/Roell Z150 Material Testing Machine

Purpose

Screw driven machine used to study the mechanical behaviour
of metallic materials under compression, tensile and cyclic loading conditions.

Specifications

• — Screw driven test frame
• — Load cell: 150kN
• — Strain rates: 10-5 to 0.5 s-1
• — Controlled in either a positional, load-controlled or true strain rate mode
• — Bespoke software designed for complex testing modes involving rapid changes to the strain rate
• — Tensile / compression testing
• — Strain rate jump testing
• — Stress relaxation testing
• — MTS extensometer and GOM® Aramis for deriving the plastic strain ratio (r) value
