4 Tips for Maintaining a Cupping Strength Tester

Metal is an important material used in different industries due to its longevity and ductility. Testing them for stress, deformation, cracks and other relevant factors is an important part of quality control . Cupping Strength Tester, designed with a corrosion-resistant body and dial, easily measures the cupping strength of materials. Very useful in determining the tensile capacity of sheet metal and for checking the performance and capabilities of painted substrates when the material is subjected to significant stress.

Introduction

Metals are desired for a variety of applications from automotive to aerospace; these materials provide an efficient way to easily manufacture different products. However, how a metal is used can also affect its ductility. A ductile metal is one that can be easily stretched without breaking. It is important to test the ductility properties .

The deep drawing ability of a sheet metal can be easily determined by performing a deep drawing test on the material. As we discussed above, cupping strength testing performed on materials will help manufacturers evaluate the ability of metal sheets and strips to deform when stresses develop. The main purpose of the cupping strength Tester is to test the tensile ability of materials under biaxial stress and to help evaluate the ductility of materials.

4 Tips for Maintaining a Cupping Strength Tester

  • Do not place flammable materials near the equipment.

  • Place the specimen correctly on the test fixture.

  • Place the machine in a clean corner of the laboratory.

  • Make sure there is no liquid material of any kind.

By following these maintenance tips, you can easily use this lab test instrument for a long time.
