Testing Equipment

DSC for determining the oxidation induction time for polymer pipe and protective pipe systems as well as moulded elements made of polyolefin.

Impact testing is used to determine material behavior at higher deformation speeds. AHP offers a wide range of pendulum Charpy/Izod impact testers for tests according to the relevant test standards. These pendulum Izod/Charpy impact testers cover a range from 0.5 Joules to 50 Joules for plastics testeing. These are available with digital touch displays and with a range of different options especially made for your tests (e.g. tensile impact tests for UPVC profiles, ….).

The test method is based on pyrolitic decomposition of the material in an inert gas flow (nitrogen).

The MFR Tester used to determine the material output from 2.095mm diameter hole in specified loading and temperature condition.

It is used for testing leaktightness of fittings for external hydrostatic pressure. It will be needed for testing fittness for the purpose of the system for mechanical fittings.

This unit is used for performing leak tests on mechanical joints between fittings and pressure pipes under hydrostatic internal pressure while subjected to bending.

It is used for making V-shaped nothes in polyolefin pipes in accordance with ISO 13479 for slow crack growth testing.

ElectroFusion fittings are specifically designed for reliable, high performance pipe joining and long system life. AHP offers a diverse range of electro fusion mechanical testing machines including ISO 13954 Peel Decohesion Testing ISO 13955 Crush Testing ISO 13956 Decohesion testing of Saddle fusion joints. Also we offer dual use machine for both PE pipes squeeze-off tests and mechanical tests of EF joints.

A microscope is required to examine the agglomerates in polyelefins for determining the degree of dispersion. The digital camera is used for images acquisition, documentation and archiving. It is supplied with image processing software and a PC for automatic determining the dispersion grade.

It is used in important tests such as MFR, carbon black content, K-value, degree of crosslinking, volatile matter, water absorption, etc.

The RCP tester conveniently and accurately determines the critical pressure and critical temperature for rapid crack propagation in PE pressure pipes.

The falling weight tester is used to determine the external impact resistance of thermoplastic pipes using the staircase or round-the-clock method according to EN744.

The tester is used to determine the Vicat softening temperature and the heat deflection temperature under load for plastics and thermoplastics.

The forced air oven is used to condition samples for tests such as longitudinal reversion and as a drying oven (e.g. for water absorption, etc.).
