For tests on teeth, dental prostheses and filling materials a test stand based on the HCT-10 servo-hydraulic testing machine has been developed
which enables dynamic loading with an axial force up to 10 kN and
torque up to 100 Nm. Up to 5 specimens can be in a water-bath at the
same time and are loaded with a testing frequency of up to 25 Hz axially, torsionally or with a transverse movement via an adaptable test piece. The forces are recorded by a load cell placed between actuator piston and die or via 3- component load cells underneath the water-bath.
