Buckling Tester- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
All components subject to pressure
are at risk from buckling. There is thus a wide practical basis for this
tester. The tester consists of the base frame, guide columns and load
cross-member. The base frame contains the lower bearing for the test
bar. This comprises the test load transducer and a changeable receptacle
for two different pressure pads, depending on the bearing conditions.
Due to the height adjustable load cross-member, test bars of varying
buckling lengths can be investigated. A hand operated load spindle is
used to generate the test force. An axial bearing between the spindle
and the pressure pad prevents torsional loading of the test bar. Using
the shear loading device, it is also possible to generate a defined
shear force on the bar. The unit can be operated positioned vertically
or horizontally, for this purpose the load gauge can be rotated 90°.
