Plastic pipes are widely used in water supply, gas distribution, drainage, and industrial fluid systems. Shijiazhuang Zhongshi Testing Machine Co., Ltd. specializes in pipe testing machines that measure pressure capacity, dimensional stability, and long-term durability for pipes made of PE, PVC, PP, PVDF, and other polymers.
Principal Testing Modules
Hydrostatic Burst and Fatigue Testing: Systems impose both constant and fluctuating pressures up to 25 MPa, identifying burst thresholds and fatigue life under cyclic loading. Controlled dwell times and ramp rates conform to ISO 1167 and ASTM D1598.
Creep and Stress Rupture: Under sustained pressure and elevated temperatures (20 °C–95 °C), the machine evaluates pipe elongation, permanent set, and time-to-failure to predict service life.
Dimensional Control: Laser or mechanical probes monitor outer diameter, wall thickness, ovality, and straightness during and after pressure application.
Leakage and Flow-Through Analysis: High-sensitivity flow meters detect micro-leaks down to 0.01 mL/min, while conductivity probes distinguish fluid ingress.
Environmental Conditioning: Integrated temperature jackets and circulation baths allow testing under temperature gradients and simulate solar-thermal environments.
