Due to the addition of a new production line with larger pipe diameters, a second apex pressure testing machine has now been procured, which can also be used to test pipes with a diameter of up to 1.8 metres.
One advantage of the apex pressure testing machines from Hegewald & Peschke is that they can be built with different test chamber dimensions in order to test different pipe diameters. The testing machines are equipped with large compression plates and special compression gauges for determining the deformation of pipe segments. These can be easily integrated into the LabMaster material testing software.
The test procedures specified in the standards can also be set up and carried out in a user-friendly manner using the testing software. Data import and export for customer software such as QDAS or SAP also work effortlessly with LabMaster.
