Anti-Buckling Test Fixture GZ BS-32
The anti-buckling test fixture is used for the cyclic characterisation of the shear and tensile-compression properties of fibre-reinforced plastics to avoid buckling effects (Euler buckling). The test fixture can be used for short, long and continuous fibre-reinforced plastics with thermoplastic or thermosetting matrices and unidirectional layers or multi-layer laminates (sandwich laminates).
The cyclic shear properties can be obtained for composite materials with +/-45° fibre orientation, whereas the cyclic tensile-compression properties can be determined when testing composite materials with 0°, 90° or 0°/90° fibre orientation.
Features & Benefits
- Design of Anti-Buckling test fixture for high loads up to 50 kN in static and dynamic testings
- Clamping surfaces interchangeable – can be quickly changed for each application or requirement
- Clamping system with Teflon coating to optimize friction between specimen and buckling fixture
- Stainless steel design of all components for use in climate chambers (-60…+150 °C)
Options
- Infrared temperature sensor for frequency-optimized testing (trimodal control of the universal testing machine required)
- Clamping wedges with cross milling, longitudinal milling, transverse milling or diamond coating
Standards
- RHV – Richtlinie des Luftfahrtbundesamtes 1999
