The Tinius Olsen Super “L” is recognized as the standard for accuracy, dependability and versatility in hydraulic universal testing machines. It represents the highest standard in hydraulically powered universal testing machines. It features a patented dual-pressure hydraulic loading system and a rugged four-column construction for exceptional load frame rigidity. In addition, it has a space-saving console with a smaller footprint design.
The Charpy impact test, also known as the Charpy v-notch test, is a standardized high strain-rate test which determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. This absorbed energy is a measure of a given material's toughness and acts as a tool to study temperature-dependent ductile-brittle transition.
The Endurance (strength) test machine consists of three models. With this machine, a pliable specimen is placed under a constant tension load. The specimen is folded to an angle of 135◦ in either direction, at the rate of 175 double folds per minute until the specimen is severed at the crease.
The Tinius Olsen’s impact testers are versatile and reliable machines designed to fully comply with the specifications outlined in ASTM E23, EN10045-2 and ISO 148.
