Product Overview

ZwickRoell H-Series Hydraulic Materials Testing Machines High-Force Materials Testing Systems (600 kN to 5,000 kN) The ZwickRoell H-Series hydraulic materials testing machines are designed for high-capacity tensile, compression, and flexure testing across demanding heavy-industrial applications. Driven by a single central hydraulic actuator, these machines deliver reliable, high-force performance in load capacities ranging from 600 kN to 5,000 kN (60 to 500 tons). Purpose-built for heavy metallurgy, civil engineering, and infrastructure manufacturing, the H-Series complies with primary international testing standards including ISO 6892, ISO 15630, and ISO 898. --- Key Features & Advantages * Central Hydraulic Drive: Powered by a robust differential actuator, providing smooth and consistent load application across high force ranges. * Adjustable Top Crosshead Option: Allows quick adaptation of the vertical test area height to accommodate varying specimen lengths and specialized testing fixtures. * Ergonomic Loading Height: Designed for easy, low-fatigue specimen insertion and operator efficiency during high-throughput testing cycles. * Full-Range High Resolution: Force measurement via DMS load cell calibrated to ISO 7500-1 (Class 0.5 and Class 1), providing continuous precision over the full measurement range without range switching. * Simplified Installation: Mounted directly on vibration-damping rubber mats, eliminating the need for expensive dedicated foundation construction. --- Technical Overview * Available Load Capacities: 600 kN, 1,200 kN, 1,600 kN, 2,000 kN, 2,500 kN, 3,000 kN, 4,000 kN, and 5,000 kN * Model Variants: Fixed top crosshead and adjustable top crosshead versions (e.g., Z600H) * Maximum Test Speed: Up to 250 mm/min * Displacement Resolution: 0.16 µm * Positioning Accuracy: ± 0.01 mm * Primary Target Industry: Heavy Metals, Metallurgy, Civil Infrastructure, Fastener Manufacturing * Relevant Standards: ISO 6892 (Ambient Tensile), ISO 15630 (Concrete Reinforcing Steel), ISO 898 (Fasteners), ISO 7500-1 --- Target Applications * Heavy Metals & Metallurgy: High-force tensile testing on thick steel plates, structural beams, and heavy alloy specimens. * Concrete Reinforcing & Steel Strands: Quality assurance testing on rebar, welded lattices, and high-strength concrete-reinforcing tendons. * Structural Fasteners: Proof load and ultimate tensile testing on large-diameter bolts, threaded rods, and industrial fasteners.
