Developed in collaboration with an automobile manufacturer
To determine the deformation behavior of metallic materials during forming processes with dominant bending elements or during crash loading, the 3-point flexure test kit from ZwickRoell was newly developed in collaboration with a large automobile manufacturer from the south of Germany. As a beta customer, the company tested the 3-point flexure test kit and further developed it with ZwickRoell. The highlight of the progression was the development of a camera system / optical system for determination of the bending angle as well as crack image capturing. Very high stiffness of the test tool was also achieved, completely fulfilling VDA238-100:2017 requirements.
