data set. The data are likely to be completely unique to each
sector, product, application and area. The most common tests
for tensile strength (MPa or PSI) are tensile chord modulus of
elasticity (MPA or PSI), tensile strain (%), Poisson's ratio and
transition strain (%). However, when testing composite materials,
the application should not pre-suppose any prior knowledge
of which measurements are required.
Using Starrett L3 software as an example, rather than providing
pre-set data, the user creates a test method for the
specific material. Using this technique, a product designer
or OEM can analyze the stress, strain, load, distance and
time for each material, with measurements displayed on
graphs and data tables with statistics and tolerances. Tests
can use tension, compression, flexural, cyclic, sheer and
frictional forces.
The unfamiliarity of composite materials requires mechanical
testing throughout the entire design and production
process. Consequently, automation is becoming increasingly
attractive to manufacturers eager to reap the rewards of composite
materials, without wasting time on endless manual testing
and measurement.
Automated software packages should be capable of creating
an interface that links hardware and software to improve
processes from the lab, right up to the plant floor. For force
measurement software applications, programming experience
should be optional, not essential.
Anatomy of a Force, Material Testing System
Understanding what comprises a force and material system
is helpful when starting to work with your equipment supplier
to determine the best design to meet your application needs.
Regardless of application, every Force Measurement and
Material Test System has the same basic components including
a test stand, load cell, fixture, and software.
Test stands perform the movement in a tension or compression
test and are controlled by the software and tablet, or PC
interface. Test stands come in a wide range of sizes and travel
options which are selected based on the application at hand.
Economic, compact single column stands are ideal for quick
checks for incoming first-article inspection or in-process
