REQUIREMENTS FOR AN AXIAL FATIGUE MACHINE CAPABLE OF FAST CYCLIC HEATING AND LOADING

Abstract

The object of the report was to investigate the requirements for an axial fatigue machine, capable of fast cyclic heating and loading. In order to evaluate the usefulness of existing equipment, various types of axial fatigue machines were studied with regard to the drive system, load capacity, frequency and accuracy. Additional studies concerned fast heating and cooling methods and their compatibility with the machines. Suggestions are made for modifications of existing equipment. Various solutions, using standard equipment, are recommended. Additional problems, such as extension measurement and temperature measurement, are briefly discussed.
