Design and Fabrication of an Elastomer Test Machine.

Abstract

An Elastomer Test machine has been designed and constructed as a unique test bed for elastomer compounds which are used on road vehicles and caterpillar tracks. The machine simulates complex wearing actions upon the elastomers. The final report describes the machine, states its specifications and given an account of interfacing of this machine to a macrocomputer and its use in testing various elastomer compounds, thus effectively testing the machine itself. Keywords: Presses(Machinery). (jes)
