What is a fatigue strength testing machine?
In the fields of industrial manufacturing, materials science, and engineering, fatigue strength testing machines are vital equipment used to test the durability of materials or structures under repeated loading. With the recent increase in discussions on "new material research and development", "intelligent manufacturing" and "equipment reliability" in hot topics, the application and importance of fatigue strength testing machines has once again become the focus. This article will introduce in detail the definition, working principle, application fields and related data of the fatigue strength testing machine.
1. Definition of fatigue strength testing machine

Fatigue strength testing machine is a testing equipment used to simulate the fatigue performance of materials or structures under repeated loading. By applying periodic or random loads, the testing machine can measure the fatigue limit, life and failure mode of materials, providing a scientific basis for product design and material selection.
2. Working principle
The fatigue strength testing machine completes the test through the following steps:
1.Load system: Apply cyclic or random loads to the specimen by hydraulic, electric or mechanical means.
2.Data collection: The sensor records the stress, strain and deformation data of the sample in real time.
3.Failure judgment: When cracks or breaks appear on the sample, the testing machine automatically stops and records the number of cycles.
3. Application fields
Fatigue strength testing machines are widely used in the following industries:
| Industry | Application scenarios |
