Metal strain is one of the physical performance parameters of metal materials and an important indicator for testing the performance of metal materials. So how do you measure metal strain?
In the laboratory, the following two types of equipment are used to test the strain of metal.
1. Metal>Tensile Testing Machine>(>or Hydraulic Tensile Testing Machine>)>
The metal tensile testing machine can be used for tensile, compression, bending, peel, shear and other material tests can be used. It is a necessary tool for testing the properties of metal materials. The general load capacity is from 5000N to 300kN. You can choose a universal testing machine with a suitable range according to your actual needs.
Second, Extensometer>
The extensometer is one of the attachments of the tensile testing machine required for metal strain testing.
To do the metal strain test, you must first install the extensometer on the universal testing machine, and then put the metal sample into the bracket, calibrate the initial position of the extensometer, and then run the testing machine to break the metal sample, and the elongation of the metal can be read directly on the control software interface.
