For “Creep tests”, the Gleeble 3500 is used.
Gleeble 3500:
- Purpose: Creep testing of test specimens over a wide temperature range, in ambient and environmental media, depending on the material quality and size of the specimen.
- Load: 100 kN
The purpose of creep tests is generally to determine the creep properties and resistance of materials under different conditions, such as high temperatures or aggressive environmental conditions. These tests are important for materials design and engineering applications as they help to understand the behaviour of materials under long-term stress.
