Checking of the uniformity of results of simultaneous creep testing equipment

The characterization of this phenomenon should be performed with appropriate test machines, which are usually dependent on expensive technology patents. The development of these own technologies, is very important to make experimental determinations that require materials.

In this paper the description of the design and construction of equipment for simultaneous tensile creep tests, carried out at the Laboratory of Mechanical Engineering Bahia Blanca Regional Faculty of the National Technological University is presented. The system consists of three machines of the same design, which subject the material under test at constant tension and temperature, maintaining the independence of operation of each with the particularity of being controlled by a single acquisition system and software.
