Hose Swing Bending Test Machine

Hose Swing Bending Test Machine
A specialized testing instrument designed to evaluate the durability and flexibility of hoses and tubing under repeated swing bending motions. This machine simulates real-world conditions where hoses are subjected to continuous swinging, twisting, or bending—such as in automotive engine bays, industrial machinery, or agricultural equipment—to assess resistance to cracking, leakage, or structural failure.

 

Equipped with adjustable swing angles (typically ±30° to ±180°), cycle speeds, and optional pressure/fluid flow controls, the tester operates by:

 

  • Securing one end of the hose while swinging the free end through a predefined arc at a set frequency (e.g., 30 cycles per minute).
  • Applying internal pressure (for pressure hoses) or flowing fluid to replicate operational loads.
  • Monitoring for failures: cracks, leaks, detachment of fittings, or fatigue-induced damage after thousands of cycles.

 

Key applications include testing hoses for:

 

  • Automotive & Transportation: Fuel hoses, coolant lines, and brake hoses exposed to vibration and movement in vehicles.
  • Industrial & Construction: Hydraulic hoses, pneumatic tubing, and power tool hoses used in machinery with moving parts.
  • Agriculture & Marine: Irrigation hoses, marine fuel lines, and sprayer hoses subjected to outdoor movement and environmental stress.
  • Medical & Food Grade: Flexible tubing for medical devices or food processing, where repeated bending must not compromise sterility or flow.

 

Compliant with international standards such as SAE J1287, ISO 1402, and DIN 73378, this machine is essential for hose manufacturers, automotive suppliers, and quality control labs. It ensures hoses withstand dynamic bending forces over their service life, reducing the risk of downtime, leaks, or safety hazards in critical applications.
