Our Machines

We have a variety of test lab machines available to carry out subcontract testing, from our Phoenix Bench Top Test Machine for small sample testing, to our 1.6MN (1600kN) Shenck Machine. We also have several 125kN and 250kN test machines. 

 

Phoenix Bench Top Test Machine (Dublin)

Our in-house Bench Top Machine is ideal for carrying out small sample testing techniques and Small Punch Creep Testing, and has been used for a complete range of testing including elevated temperature three and four point bend testing of miniaturised ceramic, high temperature alloy samples, pre-filled syringe testing, and testing electrical connectors.

Test Lab Accessories

In addition to our test lab machines, the Phoenix Materials Testing Laboratory is also equipped with some of the latest technology including:

  • Flat jaw wedge grips for prismatic and flat sample tensile testing
  • Thermal imaging camera combined with Phoenix software to give real time multi-zone temperature closed loop control
  • Laser pyrometry measuring up to 1600°C, capable of automatically compensating for emissivity changes of the material surface due to oxidisation and surface changes during the test
  • 15kW Induction heating system
  • Infra-red emitters to heat samples up to 1000°C 
  • Air amplifiers to enable controlled cooling rates, by either external cooling or internal cooling for hollow samples
  • Phoenix Environmental Chambers suitable for testing under vacuum, inert gas, or corrosive gas environments
  • Three zone furnace for heating up to 1200°C. The bore is 150mm diameter enabling elevated temperature testing of larger samples, components and assemblies
  • High temperature extensometers

Other heating methods in our specialist testing laboratory include hot air, temperature controlled water baths giving control from -10°C up to +70°C
