DESIGNER OF UNIVERSAL TESTING MACHINES Created in 1987, nearly 30 years ago, the French company 3R is specialized in designing and manufacturing testing machines for materials. Undisputed leader for more than 20 years on the french market of Civil Engineering testing equipments (with 80% market shares), the company has gradually established itself in the world of Universal Testing Machines (UTM), with a growing market share, collecting the most prestigious references, in the field of mechanics, aerospace, or nuclear. Its assets to establish itself remained the same since its creation and...

MAXIMIZE THE SUCCESS OF OUR CUSTOMERS WITH CUSTOM SOLUTIONS Our goal is not only to sell testing machines, but to propose solutions to ensure and maximize your success. Therefore we accompany you throughout the life cycle of your investment. "The engineering is not enough, we accompany the client from his request until the completion of the service, with a future-oriented open system" Our strong point, beyond our ability to design a range of machines perfectly suited to the expectations of our customers, is our capacity to manufacture high-technology machines in small series. We are able to...

NOR BUYER OR SELLER BUT PARTNERS Acquiring a testing machine is a global action. Throughout the lifetime of the machine, 3R provides full monitoring and favors interactions with the customer. The customer is not just purchasing a 3R testing machine, he is investing in a long-term partnership with a dedicated supplier. And because 3R has everything to prove, we are highly motivated to give more to our customers. We do not consider ourselves just as machines sellers, but above all as systems and solutions providers. We bring added value tailored to our customers' business. "We always imagine...

OUR DNA : DESIGNING OUR MACHINES To answer in the best possible way to the requests of the market, 3R expands its testing machine range. The high-end RIGI-DRIVE range has been deeply re-designed, the economical SMART-DRIVE-range appears, and the COMPACT-DRIVE targets for the low-capacity tests. 3R is positioning itself as an innovative player and consolidates its market leadership ambition. "Innovative design" Our 3 current ranges are the result of a global reflection. Everything has been optimized to provide our customers with the most performing and userfriendly equipment. Dual axis 350...

THE RIGIDRIVE CONCEPT The most performing solution on the market RIGID transmission combined with low deformation frame. In order to improve the stiffness of our frames, and thus the quality of guiding, SYNTECH frames are equipped with 2 to 4 columns (depending on max. load), and up to 4 ball screws for models over 400kN. • The encoder is directly linked to the servomotor for a highly responsive and stable control. • The constant velocity transmission and its low elasticity coefficient ensure exceptional smoothness of movement over the entire speed range. • Bevel gear with efficiency > 90%...

MAXIMUM ACCURACY Our challenge is to achieve extreme driving accuracy on the widest range of travel speed. Each machine configuration has to allow fast, accurate and controlled movement, in order to meet high number of tests, while allowing to achieve slow tensile tests, with instantaneous velocity lower than a micron/ minute on a period of several weeks. The remote electronics provides direct access and better electrical insulation (noise reduction). The operator has easy access for connecting his peripherals. Upgrading your equipment is simplified. Technical specifications: • Adjustable...

COMPACT-DRIVE RANGE MODEL SYNTHEZ 3kN, 5kN and 10kN SyntheZ models literally break the codes of the complicated testing machine, with a handling in just a few minutes by the operator. Mechanical characteristics • Single-screw or dual-screw type to improve the access to the workspace. • Guidance by 2 columns in tempered steel and chrome-plated ball bearing. • "table-top" frame on 4 silent blocks. • Body frame assembled in stainless steel and brushed aluminum. • Capacity 3 or 5kN for single screw frame, and 10 kN for dual-screw frame • Vertical daylight 500mm or 1200mm depending on customer’s...

Control • Operating in autonomous mode, without software • Speed regulation, adjustable from 1mm/min up to 600mm/min • Sampling rate : 50Hz • Load rate sampling resolution : 16 bits • Positioning resolution of the crosshead : 0.01mm • PC connection via USB, software control by SyntX Lite and analysis on Excel®. The association of a robust and reliable frame with proven electronics ensures international success to this low-capacity machine, equally at ease for control tests on production line and laboratory operations. SyntX-Lite software includes the main features of a complete software, by...

SMART-DRIVE RANGE MODEL SYNTAX 100kN and 300kN Thanks to the streamline design of its frames, the SYNTAX range offers, for a limited budget, to perform your tests efficiently, without compromise on accuracy or quality. Mechanical specifications • High rigidity Load frame: 100kN and 300kN • 2 preloaded ball screws • Hybrid transmission with high stiffness reinforced belt and play free gearbox. • Specific preloaded bearings, high stiffness, long lifetime, maintenance-free. Control • Brushless servo motor with encoder and brake. • Speed 0, 1 µm/min up to 800 mm/minute • Crosshead resolution:...

Protection and design • Side cladding in sturdy profiled steel for improved stiffness. • Lower box and metal frame. • Protection for each ball screws with bellows • Flush lower crosshead, protected by the casing • Safety opening doors (optional). Transparent polycarbonate and aluminum, with safety switch. Ergonomics • Working height (with optional pedestal) 975mm (SYNTAX 100). • Crosshead stroke 1230mm. • Horizontal daylight 450mm to receive all accessories. • Easy front-end handling by pallet jack or forklift, passes through a standard door. • Wide range of tooling: tensile, compression,...
