Spring testing for compression springs, tension springs, spiral springs & more
Determination of spring constant, spring rate & spring force
Universal testing machines from GALDABINI – use as spring testing machine
GALDABINI – Universal testing machines can be used as spring testing machines, among other things. This software automatically evaluates all required results:
- spring length Lo
- spring rate / spring constant C
- force at L1
- force at L2
- Setting cycles can be programmed before the actual measurement
- an average value can be calculated between loading ramp and unloading ramp
- an average value can be calculated for a guided spring
- etc.
With appropriate testing tools, the following can be tested:
- Tension springs
- Springs as spacers
- Leaf springs
- Disc springs (due to the small deformation paths, a direct measuring deformation gauge is recommended for disc springs)
