eXpert 2654 Testing System with Four-Point Bend Testing fixture
A valued customer was tasked with conducting various mechanical tests on their sandwich constructions in-house to avoid both long lead times and recurring costs associated with third-party testing done externally. These tests were according to ASTM standards, including ASTM C365, C393, D7249, and D7250. ADMET recently configured our state-of-the-art eXpert 2654 100 kN Floor Standing Dual Column Universal Testing System to meet these specific requirements.
The ADMET eXpert 2654 Universal Testing System equipped with the MTESTQuattro Materials Testing Software enables our customer to perform a wide range of common tension, compression, and flexural tests to ensure comprehensive evaluation of their materials. In addition, the versatile and advanced testing software, MTESTQuattro, is able to perform these more complex tests on composite materials and calculate key mechanical properties.

The eXpert 2654 offers several key features:
-
Versatility: The system supports a wide range of ASTM standards, in this case including:
-
ASTM C365: For determining the flatwise compressive properties of sandwich cores.
-
ASTM C393: For core shear properties of sandwich constructions by beam flexure.
-
ASTM D7249: For facing properties of sandwich constructions by long beam flexure.
-
ASTM D7250: For sandwich beam flexural and shear stiffness.
-
- High Capacity and Precision: With a capacity of up to 100 kN, this dual column system provides the strength and precision needed for rigorous testing. It can measure high forces with high accuracy, ensuring reliable and repeatable results.
-
Advanced Data Acquisition: Equipped with sophisticated data acquisition software, the eXpert 2654 captures detailed data throughout the testing process for all of the calculations required by ASTM standards, providing valuable insights into material performance.
-
Environmental Testing: The system can be configured with an environmental chamber to conduct tests under various temperature conditions, simulating real-world environments to ensure materials meet the required performance standards.
