Standard: BS EN 10002-1, ISO 7500-1, ASTM A370

1. BS EN 10002-1: This standard provides guidelines for testing the strength of metallic materials like steel. It includes procedures for preparing specimens, conducting tests, and determining properties such as tensile strength and elongation.
2. ISO 7500-1: ISO 7500-1 addresses the calibration of tension/compression testing machines. It outlines procedures for calibrating the force-measuring system to ensure accurate force measurement during material testing, maintaining reliability across different testing facilities and industries.
3. ASTM A370: ASTM A370 specifies mechanical testing methods for steel products. It covers various tests like tension, bending, and hardness testing to determine mechanical properties. This standard ensures the quality and performance of steel materials in applications such as construction and manufacturing.

Test Procedure of Universal Testing Machine 1500kN Electro-Hydraulic Servo Control

1. Preparation: Set up the testing area, ensuring adequate space and safety measures. Prepare the specimen according to testing standards or specific requirements, ensuring proper dimensions and materials suitable for the UTM's capacity.
2. Calibration: Calibrate the UTM according to manufacturer instructions to ensure accurate force and displacement measurements. Verify the calibration periodically to maintain accuracy.
3. Setup: Configure testing parameters such as mode (tension, compression), speed, and limits on the UTM's control panel. Input the maximum force or displacement limits based on the UTM's 1500kN capacity.
4. Mounting: Securely mount the specimen onto the grips or fixtures appropriate for the testing method (e.g., tensile grips for tension testing, compression platens for compression testing). Ensure proper alignment to prevent misalignment during testing.
5. Initiation: Start the test using the control panel or software interface and monitor its progress. Ensure that all safety precautions are in place before starting the test.
6. Data Collection: Collect data during the test, including force applied and displacement. Ensure the data collection system is functioning correctly and recording accurate measurements throughout the test.
7. Completion: End the test when the specimen fails or reaches predefined limits (e.g., maximum force or displacement). Stop the UTM through the control panel and remove the specimen from the grips.
8. Analysis: Analyze the collected data to determine material properties such as tensile strength, yield strength, and modulus of elasticity. Compare the results against relevant standards or specifications.
9. Reporting: Prepare a comprehensive report summarizing the test procedure, specimen details, testing parameters, results, and any relevant observations or conclusions. Include any necessary graphs, tables, or charts to illustrate the findings and ensure clarity in communication.
10. Maintenance: After completing the test, perform routine maintenance on the UTM to ensure its continued accuracy and reliability. Clean the machine and inspect for any signs of wear or damage, addressing any issues promptly.
