HDT VICAT Testing Machine Providing Deformation Temperature Testing with Automatic Sample Frame for Material Assessment
Equipment Overview
This precision testing instrument is engineered to meet the evolving demands of the plastics industry, providing advanced material research and testing capabilities. Manufactured in strict compliance with international and national standards, it is widely used across plastic chemical enterprises and research institutions for comprehensive material performance evaluation.
The machine features PC-based centralized control with digital micrometers for high-precision deformation measurement. It supports real-time test curve plotting and enables secondary data processing directly on the host computer. All test data can be exported to OFFICE software for further editing and formatting. The integrated automatic sample frame lifting mechanism ensures streamlined operation and enhanced workflow efficiency.
Utilizing a constant-speed heating algorithm, the system integrates real-time and historical temperature data to dynamically adjust heating control parameters, maintaining exceptional heating rate linearity. Built-in temperature protection automatically stops heating when safety thresholds are reached.
The instrument offers three configurable test termination modes: reaching preset displacement threshold, hitting upper temperature limit, or manual termination. Additional features include constant-temperature preheating and expansion coefficient calibration to optimize test efficiency and enhance result accuracy.
