The touch type single column tensile testing machine is widely used for testing the mechanical properties of materials such as tension, compression, and bending, especially in the fields of plastics, metals, textiles, rubber, and other materials. The following is the daily usage method of the touch type single column tensile testing machine:
1. Preparation before startup
Check the equipment: Before each use, check whether the external and electrical parts of the testing machine are intact. Especially check if the cable connections, sensors, and display screens are functioning properly.
Clean the test bench: Ensure that the test bench is clean and avoid interference from debris with the test results.
Calibration equipment: Regularly calibrate the tensile testing machine to ensure the accuracy of test data.
2. Operation interface settings
Start the device: Press the power switch of the device and turn on the touch screen of the control panel.
Select test mode: Based on the requirements of the tested material, select the appropriate test mode (such as tension, compression, bending, etc.) on the touch screen.
Set test parameters:
Maximum load: Set the maximum load value according to the test standards.
Testing speed: Set an appropriate stretching speed based on the material properties (common testing speeds are generally between 1-100mm/min).
Displacement range: Set the maximum displacement of the sample.
Enter sample specifications: Enter the size, type, and characteristics of the sample for the system to calculate a suitable testing plan.
3. Install samples
Fixed sample: According to the testing requirements, install the test sample in the fixture of the tensile testing machine to ensure that the sample is firm and not loose.
Tensile testing: Ensure that the fixtures at both ends of the sample are aligned horizontally and avoid tilting.
Compression test: Ensure that the sample is placed smoothly and the fixture is compressed evenly.
Adjust fixture position: Ensure that the fixture position is aligned with the sample to avoid testing errors caused by sample deviation.
4. Start testing
Start the testing program: Click the "Start" button on the touch screen, and the testing machine will start executing the set tensile testing process.
Monitoring process: During the experiment, monitor real-time data on the touch screen and observe the deformation, stress-strain curve, and other information of the sample under load.
Automatic shutdown: At the end of the experiment, the testing machine will automatically shut down according to the set load or displacement.
5. Record and analyze data
Viewing data results: After the test is completed, the touch screen will display the test results of the sample, including maximum tensile strength, elongation at break, yield strength, etc.
Save data: Save test data on the touch screen, usually exported in Excel, PDF, and other formats, and print out the test report.
Analysis results: Based on the test results, analyze and judge whether the mechanical properties of the material meet the standard requirements.
6. End operation
Cleaning equipment: After the test is completed, clean the testing machine and fixtures to avoid material residue affecting the next test.
Turn off the device: After use, turn off the power of the device to ensure that it remains in a safe state when not in use for a long time.
Regular inspection: During daily use, regularly inspect the electrical system and mechanical components of the equipment to ensure its long-term stability.
7. Maintenance and upkeep
Daily cleaning: Clean the equipment casing, fixtures, and sensors to maintain a dust-free and pollution-free environment, and avoid affecting equipment performance.
Regular calibration: Calibrate at regular intervals to ensure testing accuracy.
Lubrication and maintenance: Check whether the mechanical components of the equipment (such as guide rails, screws, etc.) need lubrication to ensure their smooth operation.
Replace consumables: Regularly inspect consumables such as fixtures, sensors, etc. and replace them if necessary.
8. Precautions
Safe use: During operation, strictly follow the operating procedures to avoid any human error or equipment damage.
Correct selection of fixtures: Choose appropriate fixtures and fixing methods according to different testing requirements to ensure the stability of the sample without slipping.
Avoid overloading: Strictly test according to the rated load of the equipment to avoid overloading and damage to the equipment.
Through proper use and maintenance, the touch type single column tensile testing machine can provide accurate and reliable data support for material testing.
