Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials IWM
Building a homemade hydrogen autoclave for crack growth experiments.
Through our in-house development and design of test benches, we have gained extensive experience with hydrogen autoclaves and hollow specimen test benches. Due to the explosive nature of hydrogen, comprehensive safety concepts are essential. Test benches have been equipped with induction heating and nitrogen cooling systems. Thanks to our expertise, we can quickly and reliably build test benches tailored to your needs.
- Rapid setup of test benches tailored to your needs
- Consultation regarding cost-optimized testing using preloading or hollow specimens with internal hydrogen pressure
- Materials testing under complex load cycles and multi-axial stress conditions
- Hollow specimen test benches for testing under extreme temperatures and thermomechanical fatigue
