Creep rupture test Demonstration of typical creep phenomena in various materials Features - typical phenomena of creep processes - experiments at or below room temperature are possible Learning objectives/experiments - creep in specimens of various materials - record a strain–time diagram (creep curve) - influence of temperature and load on the creep - load and recovery in plastics Specification [1] investigation of creep behaviour of different materials in creep rupture test [2] constant load on the specimen via lever arm and stepped weights [3] flat lead and plastic (PE) specimens [4] experiments at or below room temperature are possible [5] transparent temperature-controlled box with storage elements for cooling the specimen [6] dial gauge for determining the elongation [7] stopwatch to record time Technical data Specimens - LxW: 25x5mm, thickness 2mm - 10x lead - 10x plastic (PE) Weights - 1x 1N (hanger) - 2x 5N - 3x 2N - 3x 1N - 2x 0,5N Measuring ranges - tension: 5...25N/mm2 - travel: 0...10mm, graduation: 0,01mm - temperature: -50...300°C LxWxH: 700x350x510mm Weight: approx. 23kg
