Plastic Bending of Beams Apparatus Model MT 112
Plastic Bending of Beams Apparatus Model MT 112
Sci-tech Plastic Bending of Beams Apparatus Model MT 112 provides two end supports; one for completely rigid end fixings, whilst the other giving horizontal travel. Both supports create simple supports (knife edges) and have clamp plates which create fixed ends by restricting the end rotation of the test beam.
The test beams have a single point load applied using the fine screw jack mechanism with integral load cell supplied. The displacement of the test beam within its elastic and plastic regions is measured using a dial gauge and this along with the load cell output connect into the optional Interface.
A set of black mild steel beams can be supplied with further sets available.
A comprehensive instruction manual for lecturer and student, giving full details on apparatus assembly and operation as well as example results. All necessary assembly and operational tools are provided.
