Fatigue Testing System: Tracking and Collecting Data on Various Component Tests

Challenge

An aerospace components manufacturer required an actuation solution to replace an unreliable hydraulic power unit to upgrade their fatigue testing machines. They needed to perform a performance test of their assemblies and establish operating data for safety approval ratings. They wanted a robust, proven solution with no hydraulics or leak points (hoses).

Kyntronics Solution

  • “Total Solution” electric linear servo actuator. The system included the actuator, motor, cables, and control system in an enclosure with software.
  • Linear actuator with force and position feedback using servo control.
  • Flexible & programmable software menu for testing various parts with setup – select push or pull – at the desired force.
  • Breakaway detection.

Customer Benefits

  • Eliminated hydraulics, resulting in increased efficiency and an environmentally friendly, sustainable solution.
  • Simple standalone system with a user interface for setting up various tests, including data tracking and collection.

Application Requirements

Stroke: 12″
Speed: 1.2 in/sec
Force: 3,000 – 8,000 lbf.
