Zwick’s ‘roboTest F' Robotic Testing System

Zwick has designed the 'roboTest F' (Clamp) robotic testing system for non-rigid samples such as non-wovens, textiles, foilsand films. It is also possible to test plastic and metallic samples wires using the appropriate sample grips.

Key Advantages

The key advantages of the roboTest F system are as follows:

It is possible to test samples of weight up to 500g

Integration into materials testing machines ranging from 5 to 250kN is possible

Comprises a traveling axis and a carousel with up to 200 sample holders

A range of sample holders, including magnets, clamps, metal clips, are available

It is possible to perform manual tests based upon requirement by swinging the sample feeder out of the way for access

The carousel can be equipped with a variety of sample holders based on requirement, thanks to freely positionable servo axes

The magazine can hold many different specimens, including mild steel, carbon-fiber or thin metal wires, textiles, non-rigid films/foilsand metallic specimens

Optional accessories include HOST connection

Control is through an industrial controller equipped with autoEdition2 automation software
