8862 LOW CYCLE FATIGUE TESTING SYSTEM

Product catalog summary
Overview: The 8862 Low Cycle Fatigue Testing System by Instron is designed for Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) and Thermomechanical Fatigue (TMF) testing. It features a 100 kN servo-electric actuator, eliminating the need for hydraulic infrastructure.
Key Features:
  • High capacity loading frame for maximum stiffness during reverse stress testing.
  • Precision control with actuator velocities as low as 1 μm/hour.
  • Easy installation with minimal infrastructure requirements and silent operation.
  • Low power consumption and minimal maintenance compared to hydraulic systems.
  • Integration with Uninterruptable Power Supply for specimen protection during power loss.
  • Patented stiffness-based tuning algorithm for quick specimen tuning.
Software and Expertise:
  • Dedicated LCF and TMF software packages for complex tests.
  • Complete alignment solutions with AlignPro package for high temperature systems.
  • Instron's core transducer technology is verified in their UK facility.
  • Expertise in international high temperature standards and testing up to 1000°C.
  • Advanced control with the 8800MT digital controller.
Specifications:
  • Dynamic Load Capacity: Up to 100 kN (22 kip).
  • Actuator Stroke: ±50 mm.
  • Load Weighing Accuracy: ±0.002% of Load Cell Capacity or 0.5% of Indicated Load.
  • Max Actuator Speed: 300 mm/min; Min Speed: 1 μm/hour.
  • Electrical Supply: Single-Phase Mains 90-132 or 180-264 V, 45/65 Hz.

8862 LOW CYCLE FATIGUE TESTING SYSTEM-1

8862 LOW CYCLE FATIGUE TESTING SYSTEM 100 kN Servo-Electric Actuator 8862 systems have been the industry choice for Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) testing for decades and are now fully integrated with our latest controller platform. Instron® has developed this system specifically to address the challenges of reverse-stress Low Cycle Fatigue and Thermomechanical Fatigue (TMF) testing. The unique actuator technology utilizes an all-electric, backlash free, ball-screw drive eliminating the need for hydraulic infrastructure to support the machine. AN IDEAL PLATFORM FOR LOW CYCLE FATIGUE • High capacity loading frame that maximizes lateral and axial stiffness during reverse stress testing • Precision control achieved by our unique backlash free actuator design delivering actuator velocities down to just 1 μm/hour • Easy installation into any lab space with minimal infrastructure requirements • Virtually silent operation creating an ideal working environment for your operators • Low power consumption reducing your annual cost of running tests • Minimal maintenance required compared with a fully hydraulic system • Integration with Uninterruptable Power Supply to protect your specimen from overloading in the event of power loss • Patented stiffness based tuning algorithm that enables users to tune a variety of specimens in seconds INSTRON EXPERTISE ACROSS YOUR ENTIRE APPLICATION • Dedicated LCF and TMF software packages make it easy to carry out complex tests and get the results you need first time, every time • Complete alignment solutions are included on all high temperature systems. This means that you can measure and adjust loadstring alignment with the AlignPro package. The guided software will tell you exactly which adjustments are required to achieve perfect alignment • Instron’s core transducer technology is designed and manufactured by Instron in our UK centre of excellence and verified in our own onsite accredited facility • Years of experience and expertise in the changing demands of international high temperature standards and the technical challenges of testing up to and beyond 1000°C • World-class control delivered by the 8800MT which is the latest in the prestigious 8800 family of dyn
