USF-2000
Ultrasonic Fatigue Testing System
Shimadzu’s USF-2000 delivers powerful accelerated testing of materials’ fatigue strength at 20 kHz. At this vibration, which is amplified by the booster and the horn and transmitted to the test piece, it is possible to generate repeated stress on the test piece, perform uniform stress and testing, and to measure and obtain data at 109 to 1010 order fatigue strength in days.
Features
Accelerated Evaluation of Materials
At the 20 kHz cycle speed, users can complete a 1010 cycle test in a matter of days, making it ideal for long-life evaluation of materials and high-speed replication experiments.
Easy Replication of Fatigue Fractures
The USF-2000 enables detection of minor defects and inclusions in materials.
1000MPa Grade Steel Tests Possible
Easy Setting of Test Conditions
Constant stress amplitude is possible via the auxiliary controller with PC.
Compact, Desktop Design
Types of Testable Materials
- High-strength steel
