Load testing - Import export

The Poppe + Potthoff impulse test stands test the operating or fatigue strength of various metal and plastic components. The endurance test in our high-pressure test systems simulates the life-cycle under varying loads. The failure tests thus show the potential weaknesses of the components with respect to design and material. The pressure is optionally modulated as a sine wave, trapezoid curve or needle pulse. Our test stands are characterized by a special ergonomics and are designed by Poppe + Potthoff machine design. Due to our flexible modular design, our machines are very variable, so that the pressure and volume range is designed according to the customer’s requirements. Of course, our systems are UL or CE compliant as required. In addition, we offer you service and support directly on-site.

The BT310-3 bending tester is designed to perform dynamic bending stress tests with passports, e-passports, and ID-3 inlays. The purpose of this test is to determine the bending fatigue resistance of the passport booklet to fully reversed loading. The test system enables to bend the passport along the short axis or the long axis. Up to 6 passports can be processed simultaneously. This method differs from the back pocket stress method by avoiding directly applied pressure. It accelerates fatigue due to imposed bending, especially in the area of the antenna and associated connections if present. The BT310-3 bending test system is perfect for quality assurance in passport production and for passport testing in laboratories. It is helpful to ensure that the passport booklet quality meets the requirements of the ICAO. A long-lasting high quality is essential for governmental documents. Make sure your passports fulfil the requirements for global interoperability. Perfect for...
