Range of application

Advantages and features

For fatigue testing of materials or components by
applying sinusoid loads Zwick Vibrophores offer an
economical alternative using the resonance principle
with constant or variable amplitude and mean load.

• High specimen throughput due to high test
frequencies and short test time
• Extremely low energy consumption due to resonance
drive (2% of the cost of a typical servo-hydraulic
testing machine)
• Simple installation, no additional power packs
necessary (e.g. hydraulics, cooling water)
• Virtually maintenance-free system through lack of
wearing parts
• Precision force measurement through calibration
according to DIN 51 221 and US MIL Std. 1312 B
• High testing precision through adaptive control
• Fast and precise mean load control by servo drive
• High system stability and low noise-sensitivity through
pulse width modulator
• Two measurement channels for additional
extensometers (force, strain), optional extensible
through two measuring inputs
• User friendly operation through the use of industry
standard testXpert® application software configured
precisely for each test
• Standard PC can be used because no special
interface card is necessary
• The testing frequency can easily be changed using
standard weights

Fatigue testing of materials and components, e.g.
fatigue tests according to DIN 50100 (S/N curve) for
tensile stress, compressive and alternating stress
ranges. Testing can be performed either force controlled
or strain controlled.
Typical applications are fracture toughness tests on
Compact Tensile (CT) and Single Edge Bending (SEB)
specimens, oscillating of bending specimens, fatigue
strength tests on components such as springs and
screws. Other applications include production and
quality control of components that are exposed during
their lifetime.

Tests can also be carried out under various
environmental conditions (temperature, aggressive
media) with corresponding special features. In addition
torsion and bending tests can also be carried out.
