Low Strain Rate 8862 Servo-Electric Systems
The 8862 testing system features a single screw electromechanical actuator developed for slow-speed static, low strain rate, and quasi-dynamic cyclic testing. The system is completed with a high-stiffness, precision-aligned, two-column load frame to deliver unparalleled testing performance. The test space is configurable to suit your application requirements. For increased usability, the higher-capacity 8862 machine can be equipped with the actuator mounted in the lower table or upper crosshead, coupled with the option of hydraulic lifts.
Combined with the advanced features of the 8800 digital controller and Instron's advanced fatigue-rated load cell technologies, the 8862 series is ideally suited to low cycle fatigue, thermomechanical fatigue, high-temperature static, creep fatigue, slow strain rate, and ceramics testing.
Console® software provides full system control from a PC, including waveform generation, calibration, limit setup, and status monitoring. Add WaveMatrix®3 block loading software for simple or complex tests on materials or components; Bluehill® software for static tests; or LCF®3 software for low cycle fatigue tests at high temperature.
