Chair Base Compression Testing Machine

Product introduction

The test shall be performed on all pedestal bases.

The purpose of this test is to evaluate the ability of a pedestal base to withstand excessive

vertical forces.

Testing process 

a) A force of 11,120 N (2,500 lbf.) shall be applied for one (1) minute.

b) Remove the force.

c) Apply a second force of 11,120 N (2,500 lbf.) for one (1) minute.

Pressure capacity: 30000 N

Force sensor resolution <10000

Test speed: 0-50 mm / min

Interface: Windows XP system, 256M memory, 17-inch color display

Servo motor control, to maintain the feet of the plastic changes have been under the constant pressure type

Breakpoint automatic shutdown

Computerized automation, customers can write their own test program, the computer automatically generates power - time, force displacement curve.

Testing Standard
