Currently, at our facility in Worcestershire, we are commissioning a Weld Integrity Testing machine. A hydraulic jaw clamps the part and a torque drive engages with the base of the spring, and torque is applied through a rotational HBM torque transducer. The machine is capable of applying up to 500-inch lbs of torque and monitors torque vs angular movement at the base of the spring in relation to the spring body. This cell is controlled by a Redlion PLC & 10 inch HMI.
