Creep testing system for non-isothermal creep tests



With this facility, creep tests of high-temperature alloys can be conducted, allowing for both high maximum temperatures and thermal cycles with high heating and cooling rates, all while under mechanical load in a vacuum. This enables the study of material behavior and microstructural changes under varying operating conditions and frequent temperature fluctuations.
