Introduction
The Full Notch Creep Tester (FNCT) is a state-of-the-art testing system designed for creep and stress rupture evaluation of thermoplastics, polymers, and composites under sustained mechanical load. It meets international standards including ISO 16770, ASTM D2990, ISO 899, and ISO 3501, ensuring reliable and reproducible results across tensile, compressive, and flexural testing.
Ideal for research labs, quality control, and materials development, this tester combines high precision, versatile environmental control, and intelligent monitoring for advanced polymer analysis.
Key Advantages
1. Uncompromising Precision
Independent 6-Zone Control: Each station achieves ±1% force accuracy and ±0.1°C temperature stability.
Hybrid Loading System: Motorized force application with manual fine-tuning via touchscreen-guided weights allows precise sample alignment.
2. Versatile Testing Environments
Dual Bath Compatibility: Switch between water (up to 95°C) and oil (up to 150°C) baths for high-temperature polymer testing.
Expandable Force Capacity: Optional upgrade to 4,000 N per station for heavy-duty applications.
3. Intelligent Monitoring
Auto-Level Sensing: Monitors solution height to prevent test interruptions due to evaporation or leaks.
Visual Alerts: Touchscreen displays color-coded status indicators for each station.
4. Future-Ready Design
Modular Architecture: Add stations or upgrade controllers without replacing the entire system.
Multi-Language Interface: Operates in English, German, Chinese, and Spanish.
