ATS Series 2300/2400/2500 Lever Arm Creep Testing Systems make up one of the most thoroughly well-designed and versatile lines of creep and stress rupture test frames available in today’s market. Through decades of hard use, these rugged systems have stood the test of time the world over and have proven themselves by their unfailing accuracy and reliability. Integrated with the powerful WinCCS II computer control and data acquisition software package, these frames can meet virtually all of your creep testing requirements, both now and in the future. (See Bulletin 2020 for more information on the many capabilities of WinCCS II.)
ATS Series 2300/2400/2500 Creep Test Systems are precision knife-edge lever arm testers that incorporate a number of enhanced design features, making them far superior to those of our competitors. Some of these features include:
- Wide-frame construction, which allows for a variety of environmental chambers, fixtures, and other accessories, while maintaining compact overall dimensions
- Convenient side operation, providing more efficient use of laboratory space
- Counterbalanced lever arm with precision ratio adjustment and four-position rotatable hardened knife edges
- Precision drawhead guide assembly, providing automatic beam leveling, “weightless” specimen loading, hot-step loading, stress relaxation, constant stress, and more via WinCCS II software
- Durable vibration isolator mounts to prevent disturbance to other sensitive equipment upon specimen breakage\
- On-center loading at high load ratio, providing optimum strength and minimum deflection
- Rugged vee-block supports for maximum linear knife-edge contact
- Knife edges of high-strength tool steel, designed for easy replacement of worn edges
- Unique lever arm design permits the construction of high load ratios, e.g., 50:1, with standard arm and machine dimensions
