Axial Torsion Test System
The Axial Torsion Test System is a servo-hydraulic testing solution designed for high-performance biaxial material and component testing under precisely controlled axial and torsional loads. Featuring a high-stiffness load frame with superior lateral and axial alignment, this system is engineered to perform static and dynamic testing on metals, composites, polymers, biomedical devices, and automotive components.
Equipped with BI-7050 control electronics, the system enables simultaneous axial-torsional closed-loop testing using real-time, digital control loops. It provides synchronized force and displacement control with high-resolution feedback from integrated load cells, torque sensors, and LVDT-based displacement transducers.
Available in force capacities from ±5 kN to ±100 kN and torque ratings up to ±1000 Nm, the axial torsion system supports low and high cycle fatigue testing at frequencies up to 100 Hz. The modular design supports integration with furnaces, environmental chambers, and high-precision extensometers to simulate in-service operating environments.
Built to comply with ISO and ASTM standards, the system includes an intuitive software platform for profiling, data acquisition, and automated reporting — making it an ideal solution for material research labs, aerospace manufacturers, and biomedical test centers.
