Automated Flex System

towa_admin — Mon, 06 Sep 2021 08:56:39 +0000

Following the on-going innovation in automated systems, Tinius Olsen has introduced Flexural testing as part of the automated testing solution. A flex system is integrated into the automation system cell along with specimen storage, identification & measurement units and a six-axis robot to move specimens to and from the stations.

For safety and security purposes, the automated cell has various options such as interlocking doors and password protection on the specimen rack window and the door. For 24/7 surveillance, the cell is able to integrate camera systems, which can be accessed from a PC, mobile, tablet or even remotely.

Horizon software is equipped to handle end-to-end operations after the specimens are fed into the testing cell. The output package from the software includes results, graphs and videos, all delivered to teams at their workstations, stored for recall and back-up and wrapped with suitable traceability details to support compliance.

Wire Twister

The Tinius Olsen wire twisting machine is a benchtop system that provide the simplicity, performance and affordability needed for quality control and product testing.

The twister is designed to check the number of twists required to fracture a wire. Normally furnished as a bench unit, these machines are also available as floor models, and as multiple twisting units for simultaneously testing two, three or more samples.

The standard, variable speed, motor drive makes up to 62 twists per minute (rpm) with a maximum torsion rating of 1,500in.lbs. A counter indicates the total number of twists, and automatically stops the machine when the specimen fails.

Wire samples up to 18in long can be accomodated. An initial tensile load of up to 150lb can be applied to prevent kinking. Load is read in 2lb, increment on a scale.

Model IT503/504

The model IT503 plastics impact tester, together with the model IT504, continues to set the industry standard for versatility, ease of operation and display of information with high resolution. The primary difference between the IT503 and the IT504 is that the model IT504 is supplied without the interlocking safety shielding.

These machines are capable of determining impact resistance using either a Charpy or Izod configuration, without changing the entire pendulum.

The user attaches the appropriate striking tup on the pendulum, and the specimen clamp or anvils in the base of the unit, to test plastics in accordance with ASTM D256 (Izod Impact), ISO 179 (Charpy Impact), ISO 180 (Izod Impact), ASTM D6110 (Charpy Impact), ASTM D4812 (Unnotched Cantilever Beam Impact), ASTM D4508 (Chip impact), ASTM D950 (Adhesive Bond Impact), and other similar standards.

Model 50ST

The model 50ST is designed for tension, compression, flexure and shear strength testing on materials and assemblies. The robust design incorporates quality materials and components and ensures that our reputation for superior system performance, ease of use, and longevity is maintained.

A variety of loadcells are available at differing capacities that give precise applied load measurements from the smallest test specimen to ones that go to full machine capacity. Test machines become complete, powerful test systems with the addition of grips to hold the specimen, strain measurement instrumentation and Tinius Olsen’s Horizon software.
