Servo-hydraulic forming simulator DYNSJ5590 / Plastometer
The servohydraulic forming simulator from Instron offers the possibility of carrying out a wide range of tests thanks to its open design. The machine offers a test force of up to 400 kN and can be used for forming under isothermal conditions thanks to special heat containers. Possible areas of application are for example Ring Compression Tests or the acquisition of hot Forming Limit Curves(FLC).

The servo-hydraulic forming simulator (plastometer) is a universal testing machine. Due to its open design, it allows to set up a wide range of test konfigurations and apply additional measuring systems. Forming operations can be controlled user-defined through the process forces, punch stroke or speed. By using temperature-controlled heat containers, forming processes from room temperature to 1250 °C under isothermal conditions can be analysed. For example, forming limit curves can be determined both at room temperature and isothermally at up to 1000 °C using an optical strain measurement system (GOM ARAMIS).
