| The CR-900KN is the largest model in our CR Series of very rugged floor mounted machines for tension, compression, or creep testing up to 900 kN (200000 lb). The design consists of a single screw driven mechanical loading actuator which protrudes from the platen of the testing machine. The screw is driven by a gear box coupled to a DC servo electric motor operating in closed loop control for accurate loading control. The easy to use Model TC-100 software is used for testing in tension and compression loading. The rugged design features of the CR-900KN makes this machine ideally suited for a wide variety of applications in Quality Control, Research and Development, and Educational Applications for testing of products, components, and standard test specimens. Software packages are also available for performing creep tests and low cyclic rate fatigue testing. In addition, modifications to the software packages and the standard machine designs are available for special applications. |
