Tensile testers are a core element for many laboratories. They are essential for research, quality and process control. The SATRA STM 566 offers robust reliable mechanics, precision performance for enhanced capability, reliability and durability. It operates in tension and compression, is supplied with user-friendly software for a wide range of test methods and is very low maintenance.
STM 566 Tensile Testing Machine Specification
| Load capacity | 5000N load capacity at full speed (lower capacity load cells are also available). |
| Operating speed range | Speed range from 0.001mm/min to 2000mm/min in increments of 0.001mm/min. |
| Test space available | Width: 295mm. Height: 1275mm working space (actual maximum test specimen height depends on jaw dimensions). |
| Resolution accuracies | Load cell accuracies at least ±0.5% down to 1/1000th of load cell capacity. Extension measurement resolution 0.001mm, accuracy 0.01mm across full height range. |
| Construction | Sealed for life ballscrew end bearings; self cleaning pre-loaded ballscrews; Fully integrated digital control utilising precision stepper motor; High rigidity columns and crossbeam. |
| Machine protection | Up to eight times overload capacity for load cell protection; protection against overload, impact and overtravel; telescopic covers providing additional protection for ballscrews. |
| Very low maintenance | The selected materials, components and machine detail design produces a robust, durable machine with very low maintenance requirements. |
| Installation requirements | Weight 146kg (excluding jaws); 1575mm height; 450mm depth; 590mm width; electrical power requirements: selectable inputs for 115V or 230V, single phase 50/60Hz, 450W. |
| Conformity | CE Marking — conforms to relevant European Standards. |
Contact the SATRA equipment sales team if you would like to discuss any of the following:
- Do you need to conduct tensile tests against one or more standards and would like advice on suitable test jaws?
- Do you require advice on selecting an appropriate test or test standard?
- Do you have a quality control or product development problem which requires a solution? SATRA has developed a wide range of test methods (which utilise a tensile testing machine), as well as developing test-specific jaws where appropriate, in order to solve a customer or industry problem.
- Do you have a test requiring a machine of higher capacity than 5000N? SATRA can provide a higher capacity machine.
