Tensile testing with climate chamber

Characterization

Brand

Zwick 1445 Retroline
ESPEC SH-242

Load cell

10 kN

Modes

Tensile, compression

Temperature range

-20 to 150 °C

Humidity range

30 to 95 %RH (from 20 to 80 °C)

Output

Mechanical properties as function of temperature and humidity

A tensile tester is used to determine the elongation, compression and bending characteristics of a material. In combination with a climate chamber, these characteristics can also be evaluated as a function of temperature and/or humidity. Therefore, mechanical properties can be tested over a wide range of operating conditions with this setup.
