LTM-1

Zwick Materials testing Zw/ck / RoellProduct Information LTM 5/10 electro-dynamic testing machine PI969 0915 CTA: 113389 113384 Range of application The LTM is an electro-dynamic testing machine with a drive based on linear motor technology. Zwick's new, patented drive concept enables the LTM to be used for dynamic, as well as static, materials and component testing. The low moving mass of the drive provides ideal conditions for fatigue and endurance testing. With its oil-free drive technology, the electro-dynamic testing machine is clean and dependable for use, especially in the medical industry. Core applications include norm compliance testing of hip, knee and dental implants. Other typical applications include fatigue and endurance testing on norm-defined plastic and composite specimens, or on bonded components such as rubber/metal joints. Fracture mechanics investigations can also be carried out on aluminum and plastic CT and SEB specimens. Intuitive and informative operation via testXpert® R and testXpert® II software makes the LTM a genuine allrounder, also suitable for research and training at educational institutions. Features • Optimum performance through patented cylindrical drive-based technology. • From high dynamic through to low speed testing rates. • Integrated displacement measurement with excellent positioning, precision and accuracy. • Fatigue-resistant, wear-free braking system for pistonclamping. • High-precision, fatigue-resistant 2-column test frame with integrated T-slotted platform and collection trough. • Intelligent cooling system with automatic output-dependent control. • LTM supplied with integrated cooling system as standard. Optional connection to preinstalled cooling systems. • Precise control via 10kHz data-capture frequency, enabling rapid reaction to spontaneous events. • Electrically interlocked safety enclosure for compliance to the EC Machinery Directive.
