Prototype of Compact Flexural Fatigue Testing Machine

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this project is to build a prototype of compact flexural fatigue testing machine and to strive for an easy working-environment as required by the users besides cutting the cost of the machining. This particular project is about to build the prototype of compact flexural fatigue testing machine in compact mode. In this project, the prototype will be functioning 60% similar to the real fatigue machine which is Dynamic Fatigue Testing Machine (INSTRON) due to timer counter, frequency and load applied. But the new invention is this prototype was using the concept of electromagnetic force relay that will apply to the specimen using the application of basic electronics. The motion sensor also being applied to this prototype to achieve accurate results when the specimen breaks up after undergoes a fatigue failure.
