The latest developments in our materials testing chambers have enabled us to offer sub-contract testing at pressures up to 3bar in controlled environments.
Overview
Our pressure testing system includes a dedicated 50kN Benchtop machine with environmental chamber, capable of testing at elevated pressures, with a controlled gas environment (inert, corrosive, oxygen enriched), including humidity control and induction heating. These factors (temperature, pressure, environment) can be defined and controlled independently to allow a unique and flexible test environment to simulate the extreme real-world operating conditions for your test sample or material.
The induction heating system allows for TMF in a controlled environment (Thermo-mechanical Fatigue), while the susceptor designs allows access for an extensometer to enable strain-controlled fatigue testing.
The chamber is suitable for testing a variety of sample materials, including metals, ceramics and composites.
- Pressure testing to 3bar
- Environmental, humidity and temperature control options
- Combined heating and environmental capabilities into one test program
- Suitable for testing metals, ceramics and composites samples
High Pressure Testing
If you require extremely high pressure testing for your sample or component, we can also offer bespoke testing programs up to 100bar** using our dedicated test system and environmental chamber. This system has all of the previous features, but allows testing up to 100Bar.
** The activities identified with ** are not UKAS accredited.
Our high pressure testing systems are tailor made to our customer’s specification, and are designed and manufactured in house by our team of expert engineers. The high pressure testing system is also suitable for testing in a range of environmental conditions with the option to add in steam capabilities.
Turbine Blade Engine Simulation Systems
In addition to our sub-contract testing services, Phoenix also designs and manufactures a range of environmental chambers to simulate the conditions inside a turbine engine under different operating conditions.
Take a look at our case study to see how we have worked with our customer in the Aerospace sector to design and manufacture a bespoke, first-in-class environmental chamber to achieve low pressure testing for their samples.
