The high temperature testing system is based on the universal testing machine series inspekt. The inspekt S 50kN high-temperature testing machine from Hegewald & Peschke can be used to determine the mechanical properties of metallic and ceramic materials as well as metalloceramic composites. These are used, for example, as heat shields in space technology or as heat-insulating building materials. 

Universal testing machine inspekt table 10 kN or inspekt table 50 kN as calibration machine, equipped with three load cells. The testing machine is designed for testing and calibrating load cells in different force ranges.

This testing machine allows to determining the abrasion and friction properties on deep-drawn sheets. Those sheets are used e.g. for engine bonnets, car wings, doors or pillars. The corresponding test procedure is the draw-bead-test.

Piping systems made of spun glass fibre reinforced polyester resins are mainly used for drinking water and waste water pipes and in irrigation and drainage systems. The pipe diameter can vary between 150 mm and 4200 mm. As the pipes are exposed to high pressure loads during installation, determining the mechanical properties is of central importance. This is done by testing the ring stiffness. Ring stiffness describes the strength behaviour of plastic pipes. Characteristic values are the crown compressive strength according to DIN EN 1228 as well as the compressive and circumferential elongation. All values are determined in both the circumferential and longitudinal directions.

Hegewald & Peschke offers two machines for this test.
