Equipment

Creep test system (SPP)

Creep test system(SPP)- system for temperature control and regulation, as well as collecting, visualization and processing of the results of creep tests.
The system facilitates simultaneous execution of:
- 87 creep tests along with elongation measurement during testing, at the temperature of up to 1100^oC, predetermined individually for each of the examined samples,
- 800 creep tests without measurement of elongation during test ,at fixed 8 levels of testing temperature in the range from 550 to 900^oC, 100 tests per each temperature level,
- 320 long time annealing tests at 8 fixed test temperature levels in the range from 550 to 900^oC, 40 tests for each temperature level.

One-sample machines for creep tests manufactured by IMŻ

Thirteen (13) six-stand one-sample machines for creep tests conducted at temperature up to 1000^oC with level system ensuring stability of load (up to 5 kN) with and without measurement of elongation during the test.

One –sample machines for creep tests by INSTRON, model M3TCS

Four (4) one-sample machines (by Instron) for creep tests conducted in the temperature up to 1100^oC with lever system ensuring stability of load (up to 30 kN) with and without measurement of elongation during test.

Machines for creep tests by ZWICK MODEL 4210

Three (3) one-sample machines for creep tests (ZWICK model 4210) conducted at temperature up to 1000^oC with and without measurement of elongation during the test.

Machines for creep tests by DENISON

Two (2) one-sample machines for creep tests (Denison, model T48) conducted at temperature up to 1000^oC with lever system ensuring fixed load ( up to 30 kN) with and without measurement of elongation during the test.

Multi-sample machines for creep tests manufactured by IMŻ

Four (4) two-chamber multi-sample machines for creep tests facilitate conducting tests at temperatures from 550^oC to 900^oC at eight fixed temperature levels and ten load levels for each of them. Tests are conducted without measurement of elongation at max. load of 6 kN.
