MAYTEC bending measuring systems (deflectometers) were specially developed for use in furnaces for temperatures up to 1500°C. 3-point, 4-point bending tests and pressure tests can be carried out with a simple mechanical conversion. We use LVDTs with a measuring path of 1 or 5 mm as displacement sensors. The load is transferred from the testing machine to the workpiece directly via the measuring device and via Al₂O₃ pipes (pressure pipes) to the supports or pressure stamps, which are designed as standard in SSIC. The measuring path on the sample is guided via 3 ceramic buttons through the tube into the measuring device to the sensor. We adapt the supports to your sample geometry and the pressure tube lengths to your furnace.

- Contact pressure of the rods can be continuously adjusted between 1 and 2 N

- Distance between the two reference rods is 20 mm

- Resolution < 0.15 µm

- 4 variants: LVDT 1 mm and 5 mm travel, half bridge 1 mm and 5 mm travel

- Depending on the modification, up to 10 kN load capacity at 1500°C
