Overview

Clean, accurate specimens for every mechanical test

Tensile, impact and other mechanical tests need specimens of the exact standard shape with smooth, nick-free edges. The reliable way to produce them from plastic or rubber sheet is die-cutting: a cutting die is placed on the sheet and pressed through it under hydraulic force.

International Equipments builds a manual 5-tonne hydraulic cutting press that punches specimens from sheet up to 4 mm thick, with a 12 inch daylight and 4 inch cross travel. It works with dumbbell, impact-bar and disc dies to suit your standards. Manufactured in Mumbai; other capacities are available on request.

How the test works

Step by step

  1. Fit the diePlace the appropriate cutting die (dumbbell, impact bar, disc) on the sheet.
  2. Position the sheetLay the plastic or rubber sheet, up to 4 mm thick, under the die.
  3. PressOperate the manual hydraulic press to punch the die through the sheet.
  4. Eject the specimenRemove the clean-cut specimen, ready for testing.
