High and Low Temperature Relaxation Creep Tester

High and Low Temperature Relaxation Creep Tester
A precision testing instrument designed to evaluate both creep and stress relaxation behaviors of materials under extreme temperature conditions—from cryogenic lows to high heat. This machine combines temperature control with long-term mechanical testing to assess how materials deform under constant load (creep) or lose stress under constant deformation (relaxation) when exposed to temperature fluctuations, critical for predicting long-term performance in harsh environments.

 

Equipped with a wide-range temperature chamber (-196°C to 1000°C, depending on model), high-precision load cells, and advanced data logging systems, the tester offers:

 

  • Creep Testing: Applies constant load to samples at specified temperatures (e.g., -50°C, 300°C) and measures gradual deformation over hours, days, or weeks to determine creep rate and rupture time.
  • Stress Relaxation Testing: Maintains constant deformation in samples under temperature control, recording stress decay over time to evaluate material “relaxation” properties.

 

Compatible with diverse materials across industries:

 

  • Metals & Alloys: High-temperature components in aerospace engines, power plants, or industrial furnaces; cryogenic materials for LNG systems.
  • Polymers & Composites: Automotive parts, seals, and insulation materials exposed to extreme cold (e.g., winter climates) or heat (e.g., engine bays).
  • Rubber & Elastomers: O-rings, gaskets, and hoses in refrigeration systems, industrial ovens, or outdoor equipment.

 

Compliant with international standards such as ASTM E139 (metals), ISO 899-2 (polymers), and ASTM D2990 (plastics), this tester is trusted by R&D labs, material manufacturers, and quality control teams. It provides critical data to optimize material selection for extreme environments, validate product durability, and ensure compliance with industry standards for safety and reliability.
