Overview
The HESON HS-3002C-S is a high-precision electromechanical universal testing machine engineered for quantitative mechanical characterization of structural fasteners—particularly bolt pull-out strength—and broad-spectrum material behavior under uniaxial loading. It operates on the principle of controlled displacement-driven force measurement, utilizing closed-loop servo control to maintain precise strain or load rates during static and quasi-static tests. Designed in accordance with ISO 6892-1 (metallic materials — tensile testing), ASTM E4 (load verification), ASTM E8/E8M (tensile testing of metallic materials), and ISO 7500-1 (calibration of force-proving instruments), the system delivers traceable, repeatable results suitable for R&D labs, QC/QA departments, and third-party certification facilities. Its dual-purpose architecture supports both dedicated bolt anchorage evaluation per EN 14509 or ACI 318 Annex D, and generalized mechanical property determination—including yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, elongation at break, Young’s modulus, and plastic deformation thresholds—for metals, polymers, composites, ceramics, and hybrid laminates.
Key Features
- 300 kN high-capacity load frame with rigid four-column construction and precision-ground ABBA (Taiwan) hardened carbon steel lead screws (HRC ≥60) and Taekyung (Korea) hardened guide rods, ensuring axial alignment stability and minimal deflection under full-load conditions.
- Transcell (USA)-sourced 300 kN S-type load cell with ±0.5% full-scale accuracy and ultra-high resolution (±1 part in 500,000), calibrated to NIST-traceable standards and verified annually per ISO/IEC 17025 requirements.
- Panasonic (Japan) AC servo drive system with integrated motion controller enables seamless speed regulation from 0.001 to 100 mm/min, supporting both displacement-controlled and force-controlled test modes with programmable ramp-hold-step profiles.
- Integrated extensometer interface supporting clip-on, video, or non-contact strain measurement devices—enabling compliant and non-compliant strain acquisition across elastic and plastic regimes per ISO 527-2 and ASTM D638.
- Tactile HMI touchscreen console with embedded Windows-based OS, supporting direct test initiation, real-time parameter monitoring, and local data storage; fully compatible with external PCs via Ethernet or USB for advanced analysis and GLP-compliant reporting.
- Modular fixture mounting platform with T-slots and standardized adapter plates facilitates rapid reconfiguration for bolt pull-out, wedge grip tension, three-point bending, compression platens, peel, shear, and custom fixturing per ASTM D1876, ISO 4587, or customer-defined geometries.
Sample Compatibility & Compliance
The HS-3002C-S accommodates specimens ranging from M6–M36 threaded fasteners (including chemical anchors, expansion bolts, and post-installed rebar) to flat coupons (up to 120 mm wide × 5 mm thick), cylindrical rods (Ø ≤ 40 mm), and composite laminates (up to 25 mm thick). Its 800 mm effective test height allows full-stroke evaluation of long embedment configurations and multi-layer substrate assemblies. All mechanical and electrical subsystems comply with CE marking directives (2006/42/EC Machinery Directive, 2014/30/EU EMC Directive), IEC 61000-6-2/6-4 immunity/emission standards, and UL 508A industrial control panel requirements. Data integrity conforms to FDA 21 CFR Part 11 principles through user-level access control, electronic signature support, and immutable audit trails within the bundled software environment.
Software & Data Management
The included bilingual (English/Chinese) test software provides ISO 17025-aligned test method templates—including ASTM D3039 (composite tensile), ISO 148-1 (Charpy impact correlation), EN 14509 (sandwich panel pull-through), and ACI 355.2 (adhesive anchor qualification)—with customizable pass/fail criteria, automatic yield point detection (0.2% offset, tangent, or maximum curvature methods), and stress-strain curve smoothing per ASTM E23-22 Annex A1. Raw data exports are available in CSV, XLSX, and XML formats with embedded metadata (operator ID, timestamp, calibration certificate ID, environmental conditions). Audit logs record all user actions—including method edits, result overrides, and calibration events—with time-stamped digital signatures. Optional integration with LIMS platforms (e.g., LabWare, Thermo Fisher SampleManager) is supported via HL7 or RESTful API.
Applications
- Quantification of bond strength between threaded anchors and concrete/masonry substrates under sustained and cyclic loading per ETAG 001 Annex C.
- Mechanical screening of polymer-modified cementitious grouts, epoxy adhesives, and acrylic injection resins used in structural retrofitting.
- Characterization of tensile ductility and fracture toughness in high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels, duplex stainless steels, and aluminum alloy fasteners.
- Validation of interfacial adhesion in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wraps bonded to RC members using pull-off or double-lap shear protocols.
- High-resolution creep and stress-relaxation profiling of thermoplastic composites and elastomeric sealants under ISO 899-1/2.
- Supporting academic research in advanced materials—such as nanocellulose aerogels, PI-based battery separators, MOF-polymer hybrids, and conductive polymer films—as evidenced by peer-reviewed publications from institutions including Zhejiang University of Technology, Jiangsu University, and Northwestern Polytechnical University.
FAQ
Does the HS-3002C-S meet ASTM E4 calibration requirements for force verification?
Yes—the system includes factory-certified calibration certificates traceable to NIST standards, and its Transcell load cell is validated per ASTM E4 Annex A2 for Class 1 accuracy (±0.5% tolerance band). On-site recalibration services are available globally.
Can the machine perform bolt pull-out tests in accordance with EN 14509 or ACI 318 Appendix D?
Yes—preconfigured test methods and fixture kits are supplied for both standards, including displacement-controlled loading ramps, hold periods, and failure mode classification logic.
Is the software compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 for regulated pharmaceutical or medical device testing?
The software supports electronic signatures, role-based permissions, and audit trail generation; however, full Part 11 validation requires site-specific IQ/OQ/PQ documentation, which HESON provides upon request.
What is the warranty coverage and service response time for international customers?
Standard warranty is 24 months parts-and-labor, with remote diagnostics support available 24/5. Field service engineers are deployed within 5 business days for major markets (EU, NA, SEA) following ticket escalation.
Are custom grips or environmental chambers compatible with this model?
Yes—the machine features ISO-standard M12 threaded mounting interfaces and 24 VDC auxiliary power outputs, enabling seamless integration with hydraulic wedge grips, cryogenic chambers (-70°C to +300°C), and humidity-controlled enclosures (10–95% RH).
