Process

• Sample Preparation: Prepare metal samples according to required guidelines, ensuring uniform size and shape, cleaning the surface, and removing impurities.
• Test Setup: Set up the test apparatus, ensuring the metal samples are properly aligned and ready for testing.
• Sample Mounting: Secure the metal sample to the pull-out test device using a bond or clamp designed for the specific test.
• Test Execution: Apply increasing tensile stress to the metal sample until it separates from the bond or coating. Record the maximum force applied and the displacement at failure.
• Data Analysis: Analyze the test data, focusing on the maximum force attained, the mode of failure (e.g., adhesive failure or cohesive failure within the bond), and other relevant factors.

Breaking Load Test

The breaking load test, also known as a tensile strength test or ultimate tensile strength test, determines the maximum load a material can withstand before breaking or fracturing. This test is commonly performed on metals to evaluate their mechanical and structural properties.

Process :

• Sample Preparation: Prepare metal samples according to required specifications, ensuring correct size, shape, and surface quality.
• Test Setup: Set up the breaking load test apparatus, typically a universal testing machine (UTM) that applies axial force and measures load and elongation.
• Sample Mounting: Secure the metal sample in the testing machine using appropriate gripping techniques, such as wedge grips, screw grips, or hydraulic grips.
• Test Execution: Apply a steadily increasing tensile force until the metal sample breaks, while continuously measuring load, displacement, and other data.
• Data Analysis: Review the collected data, including the maximum load applied, extension or displacement at failure, and fracture type (e.g., ductile or brittle), to assess the material's tensile strength and behavior under load.

Compression Test

The compression test is used to determine a material's response to compressive loads. It is commonly used on metals to assess their compressive strength, elasticity, and deformation properties.

Process :

• Sample Preparation: Prepare metal samples to the required specifications, ensuring correct shape, size, and surface quality for accurate testing.
• Test Setup: Set up the compression testing apparatus, typically a universal testing machine (UTM) or a compression testing device, which compresses the metal sample while measuring load and deformation.
• Sample Mounting: Place the metal sample between the testing device's compression platens, ensuring it is centered and aligned for accurate results.
• Test Execution: Apply a continuously increasing compressive force to the metal sample until the desired load is reached or until deformation or fracture occurs. The testing apparatus records real-time measurements of load, deformation, and other relevant factors.
• Data Analysis: Analyze the data, focusing on the maximum load applied, the type of deformation (elastic or plastic), and the material's maximum compressive strength, to evaluate the material's resistance to compressive stresses and its bending properties.
