Product catalog summary
Application Range: The TorsionLine TL020, TL200, and TL500 torsion testing machines are designed for examining the torsional effects on materials and components, with a horizontal torsion testing axis. They are primarily used for testing plastics, metallic materials (e.g., reverse torsion testing of wire per DIN EN 2002-13), medical engineering products (e.g., metal bone screws per ISO 6475), fixture systems, screws, compound materials, cardan shafts, and motor bearings.
Advantages and Features: These machines offer high stiffness for accurate angle measurement, high rotation angle resolution, mechanical overload protection, and maximum test speed. They utilize maintenance-free AC-servo-motors and can be operated with standard PCs or laptops using testXpert® II software. Optional features include a static load application unit for tensile and compression forces up to 500 N. The machines are suitable for production, quality assurance, research, and development, offering flexibility and modern software control. Safety is ensured with an electrical interlock conforming to CE standards, and a wide range of optional Zwick accessories is available.
Specifications: The machines have a maximum torque (Mmax) of 20 Nm, 200 Nm, and 500 Nm for TL020, TL200, and TL500 respectively. They share dimensions of 1775 mm in height, 1475 mm in width, and 650 mm in depth, with adjustable operation height. Each model includes an electrical interlock safety device and manual locking piston with electrical monitoring. The weight ranges from 185 kg to 188 kg, depending on the model. The machines support a maximum clamping length of 510 mm with 4 jaw chucks and 680 mm with a universal flange. They operate at ambient temperatures of +10 to +35°C and humidity levels of 20-90%, with a maximum noise level of 70 dB(A).
Torsion Drive: The turning speed ranges from 0.0005 to 180 U/min for TL020, 0.0005 to 90 U/min for TL200, and 0.0005 to 50 U/min for TL500. The angle resolution of the motor varies from 3.29 to 0.92 angular seconds per digit, with positioning accuracy of ≤ 20 to ≤ 10 angular seconds. Backlash in the moment zero crossing is less than 1 angular minute.
Torque Cells: The scope of delivery includes locking pistons. Torque cells are available with different maximum torques and accuracy grades, ranging from 2 Nm to 500 Nm, with item numbers provided for each configuration.
