ISO 12111 is applicable to the TMF testing of uniaxially loaded metallic specimens under strain control. Specifications allow for any constant cyclic amplitude of mechanical strain and temperature with any constant cyclic mechanical strain ratio and any constant cyclic temperature-mechanical strain phasing. The test condition is one where cyclic, theoretically uniform, within the test section, temperature and strain fields are externally imposed, simultaneously varied and controlled.
Tension-compression machine designed for smooth start-up, with no backlash when passing through zero force. The machine shall be capable of controlling strain and measuring force when applying the recommended waveform. By means of our testing expertise and modular product design, we will help find the solution that is right for you. Give our test engineers a call today for help configuring the best test machine and accessories according to ISO 12111.
