AJT Equipment is Delighted to Supply Huge 3000 Tonne Tensile Test Machine to Germany
Powering the Future of Material Testing: AJT Equipment Delivers 30,000kN Tensile Test Machine to Anker Schroeder, Dortmund
At AJT Equipment, we are thrilled to announce the successful delivery of a state-of-the-art 30,000kN tensile test machine to Anker Schroeder in Dortmund, Germany. This cutting-edge machine marks a significant milestone in high-capacity material testing, reinforcing our commitment to engineering excellence and innovation.
Unrivalled Power & Precision
Our 30,000kN tensile test machine is designed to push the boundaries of material testing. This impressive piece of equipment offers unparalleled capabilities, including:
• Proof Load Test Capacity: Up to 30,000kN
• Break Test Capacity: Up to 20,000kN
• Versatile Sample Testing: Accommodates shackles and tie-rods ranging from 1 to 7 meters in length
• Advanced Hydraulic System: Powered by two 55kW hydraulic pumps—utilize one pump for energy efficiency or both for faster testing speeds
• Comprehensive Data Logging: Our proprietary software enables operators to program and store a full range of test criteria, ensuring precise and repeatable results
• Engineering Marvel: Weighing over 120 tonnes, nearly 15 meters in length and over 2 meters high
Transporting this engineering giant required eight vehicles to make the journey from the West Midlands, UK, to Germany. Now installed in a specially designed pit at Anker Schroeder, enabling safe and accessible operations for engineers and testing personnel.
