This service is relevant if…
- Your testing machine has broken down or is no longer reliable
- Your results lack accuracy
- Your equipment is outdated or limited
- Your control system is obsolete
- You need to carry out new types of testing or test cycles
- You need to add instrumentation
- Certain spare parts are no longer available
Why modernise a testing machine?
- Improve test accuracy
- Reduce breakdowns and address obsolescence
- Integrate new sensors or test cycles
- Extend the equipment’s service life
Diagnostic assessment and technical study
Every project begins with an assessment of the equipment and its mechanical, hydraulic, electrical and software condition.
This stage identifies which components can be retained, replaced or upgraded. It also defines the required performance, operating constraints and necessary modifications.
Testing machine upgrade
Depending on the condition of the equipment, the modernisation may include:
- The control system ;
- The electronics ;
- The sensors ;
- The data acquisition system ;
- The hydraulic components ;
- The supports and accessories ;
- The guards and safety devices ;
- The test control software.
The objective is to improve the testing machine’s reliability, accuracy, safety and range of applications.
Control system upgrade
The retrofit can include a new-generation control system designed to meet current testing requirements.
Depending on the testing machine, the system can provide force, displacement, stress or strain control, perform complex test cycles, and acquire, analyse and process test data.
The new control system can also facilitate after-sales support, improve access to replacement components and support future equipment upgrades.
