Universal Sheet Metal Testing Machines - Model 145
Download Model 145 PDF HereThe Models 145-60 and 145-100 belongs to the top-of-the-line models of our sheet metal testing machines. Depending on the demand, there are two versions available: with a drawing force of 600 kN or 1000 kN, including an increased blanking force and blank holder holder force for blank diameters up to 220 mm. The testing machines are equipped with electro-hydraulic drive, fully automatic test sequence and switch-off at specimen failure.
The Testing Machine is driven electro-hydraulically. The test sequence is controlled automatically or manually as appropriate. A programme logic controller is used for the functions of the machine (optional computer controls). The drawing force and blankholder force as well as the drawing punch stroke are digitally displayed. The triple-acting hydraulic system in conjunction with the general design results in the following cost saving simplifications:
- Blanking press in the test head
- Hydraulic cup ejector
- Fully-automatic test sequence.
Further technical advantages
- Cylinder head with bayonet lock
permitting direct access to drawing dies, blanking rings, blank holders etc. and quick and convenient changing of the drawing and blanking tools. - Infinitely variable drawing speed
once set it remains constant throughout the drawing movement, independent of any change of load - Cardanic drawing die retention
ensures the consistent, parallel clamping of the specimen, independent of variations in thickness
Hydraulically lifted test head
Hydraulic test head lifting function ensures a high rate of working safety and facilitates convenient testing due to the fact that the test head is hydraulically opened and closed.
Hot Drawing Equipment up to 550 °C
A further valuable addition to the possibilities offered by Model 142 is provided by the additional hot drawing equipment. In this, the blankholder and drawing die are heated in an insulated container and special provision is made to enable these then to be set up without difficulty on the machine. An electronic temperature measuring device is incorporated, and on this the preset intended temperature and the current measure temperature are displayed. The preset temperature can be set up to 550 °C, and in the test, the temperature remains constant within ±10 °C.
Special applications
This Sheet Metal Testing Machine can be customized and extended to accommodate special requirements, e.g. determination of forming limit curves (FLC) using a 3D.
Generally the sheet metal testing machine will be equipped with proportional technology and difference pressure measuring. As option it is possible to select a PC controls/regulation with software.
High Temperature Facility up to 900 °C
Due to the close co-opertion between manufacturer and universities, research institutes and the industry, the possibilities of application of sheet metal testing have multiplied. A high temperature facility enables to characterize the forming behaviour of metal sheets at up 900 °C. Contrary to the already existing hot drawing equipment (550 °C), here the test panel is inserted directly into the sheet metal testing machine. By means of a temperature measurement temperature profiles can be established.
Equipment for High Speed Tests
This optional equipment enables deep drawing tests to be conducted at elevated speeds that arise in practise. The speed of the drawing punch is preselected from 3 m/min to 25 m/min and is digitally displayed. The Sheet Metal Testing Machines, Models 142, and also all the accessories, can be varied within wide limits to suit special individual requirements. Please let us have details, therewith we shall be pleased to offer equipment to match your needs.
