Environmental chamber for Universal Testing Machines UTM-130, 79-PV70E32
Description
 
IPC Global’s environmental chambers use a high quality mechanical refrigeration system and superior insulation technologies to enable users to analyze materials’ properties at real-life working temperatures (up to -50 to 80/100° C) for extended periods without the need of LN2. High accuracy and total control over temperature ramps and dwells are achieved using the Programmable Digital Controller enabling users to easily perform complex test e.g. Thermal Stress Restrained Specimen Test (TSRST). The Environmental chamber can be used as part of your Superpave performance based testing program.

Servo-Hydraulic Universal Testing Machine UTM, 30 kN cap.

Universal Testing Machines (UTMs), Servo-hydraulic system, 30kN capacity

Universal Testing Machine UTM-30
Description

 

Universal Testing Machines (UTMs), Servo-hydraulic, equipped with high performances environmental chambers and extensive suite of accessories offer the greatest flexibility to perform all advanced pavement materials tests, ideal for Research purposes, featuring higher loads from 30 to 250 kN, lower temperatures -25°C, -50°C. Compatible and in compliant with larger range of accessories and Standards.

The heart of all these products is the IMACS2, 3rd Generation Multi-Axis Digital Controller and Data Acquisition System which delivers leading edge performance, unparalled real time computer computer control an flexible data acquisition, together with the powerful and professional UTS Neutron suite draws upon over 30 years of advanced materials testing experience. Used and relied upin by hundreds of researchers, you can buy with confidence knowing your test results having immediate credibility.

IPC Global’s Hydraulic Power Supply (HPS), part of the machine, has been designed with integrated VFD (variable speed) technology assuring energy saving and noise reduction. HPS features return line filtration, remote starting and control via virtual pendant, air cooling and indication for low oil, over temperature and dirty filter. The system provides electronically adjustable oil pressure allowing greater control and safety. Oil accumulators further improve control accuracy while the high performance filters ensure long life system protection and reduced maintenance costs.

The UTM-30 is available in two versions: Standard, with tie-rod actuator and High Performance, fitted with Servo-Hydraulic Labirynth bearing actuator.

The UTM-30 Servo-pneumatic testing systems can be used as part of your Superpave performance based testing program.

  • Lower oil flow and therefore lower power consumption compared to sealless cylinders
  • Wave shape fidelity guaranteed even at highest frequencies
  • Longer life compared to standard tie-rod cylinders
  • Improved side load resistance for tests such as Two-Point Bend
