The indirect tensile test (of cylindrical specimens, cyclic indirect tensile test) to DIN EN 12697-24 E, DIN EN 12697-26 C and AL-SP-Asphalt 09 is used to determine stiffness and fatigue properties.
HB servo-hydraulic testing machines have the testing actuator mounted on the upper crosshead, making them extremely versatile in use, especially in conjunction with the optional T-slot platform, which enables flexure and component testing in addition to standard tests.
Servo-hydraulic testing actuators are used in materials and component testing to reproduce precise, pre-determined forces and travel. They can be integrated into a load frame (Models HA, HB, HC) or mounted on a platform as a single testing actuator.
