I. Overview of Railway Elastic Tie Fastener Fatigue Test Machine
1. Usage Features:
PMW-400-500 model electro-hydraulic railway tie fastener fatigue tester, mainly used for dynamic pulsation fatigue tests of railway tie fastener assembly, also applicable to railway locomotive axle fatigue tests, railway rail fatigue tests, and static compression tests and unidirectional dynamic pulsation fatigue tests for various large components such as concrete structural elements, steel rails and their welded joints, bridges, various trusses, car undercarriages, front and rear axles of cars, locomotive bogies, and various large components. It is a widely used, reliable, and cost-effective fatigue life testing and detection system in the fields of transportation and rail. The PMW series electro-hydraulic pulsation fatigue tester utilizes a unique crank and connecting rod oscillating rod mechanism to achieve sinusoidal wave loading on the tested items, featuring the best energy-saving design, which consumes only one-twentieth of the energy of similar electro-hydraulic servo fatigue testers!
