Touchstone has a biaxial servo hydraulic test frame with a combined axial and torsional dynamic actuator in the upper crosshead. This test frame is able to meet the demands of a variety of both static and dynamic testing requirements. Testing features include an axial force capacity of up to 5,500 lbf (24.5 kN), torsional moments of up to 1,000 lbf-in (113 N-m) and rotations of ± 45°. Touchstone is able to test durability and wear properties of components, to perform torsional fatigue testing, as well as perform simple and complex kinematics studies. With a wide range of axial-torsional grips and accessories, as well as a machine shop in house, Touchstone can perform both custom and standard tests.
