These SH-B series Servo Hydraulic Testing machines offer highly efficient, rapid and reliable testing. The system is capable of performing rigorous fatigue tests at up to 70 Hz at full load.
 

The machines consist of a sliding, fully adjustable crosshead which is clamped by pinch bolts to twin chromed solid steel columns. The crosshead is set prior to testing and can accommodate samples of varying dimensions.
 

A dynamically rated actuator (ordered seperately) is mounted to the cross head, and is available in various force capacities and stroke for optimum dynamic response. A specially designed loadcell is fixed to either the base or the crosshead for added testing versatility. The sample is secured between the solid base and actuator rod by a comprehensive range of grips, jigs and fixtures.
 

The system is controlled by a personal computer (not included), using specialist MICROSOFT WINDOWS™ compatible testing software. The system also features its own embedded RISC processor and digital controller ensuring efficient test operations even in the event of computer failure or disconnection. Integral safety features include an adjustable safety collar to prevent the crosshead from slipping when adjusted, large base mounted emergency cut-off switch and an optional splinter shield is available.
