Creep Testing Machines: Long-Term Testing in Extreme Environments

ZwickRoell's creep testing machines, available through ZRS Testing Systems, offer the market's most comprehensive solutions for conventional and advanced creep testing—with precise control of force, strain, and temperature for up to 100,000 hours.

The machines cover a wide temperature range from –80 °C to +2,200 °C and are designed to handle testing in various environments—including inert gas, vacuum, and air. Whether you need to perform standardized creep tests or advanced creep-fatigue tests, stress relaxation, crack propagation, or short-term tensile tests, our systems offer the accuracy, stability, and reproducibility required for critical material applications.

Machine series for various needs:
Electromechanical Kappa Systems: Flexible and robust machines for creep testing up to 250 kN and with a service life of 10,000 hours, featuring single or double ball screws.

Lever-type machines (lever arm): Ideal for classic creep testing with very long test durations of up to 100,000 hours and loads of up to 100 kN.

High-rigidity test frame with four columns: Provides exceptional stability for high-force and high-temperature testing.

Each system is equipped with testControl II electronics and testXpert III software, providing complete process control, traceability, and user-friendly test configuration.

ZwickRoell creep testers are used, for example, in:

The energy sector (steam boilers, turbines)

Aerospace and automotive industry

Materials research and standard testing (ISO, ASTM)

At ZRS, we don't just supply equipment—we also offer installation, calibration, service, and technical consulting to help you conduct reliable long-term testing, regardless of the test environment.
