Pressure Test Stands For
Aerospace Components
Test rigs by Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau put fluid systems and components for aerospace applications through tough trials by exposing them to pressure load changes while simulating real-life temperature conditions. During a design life test, also known as a pressure cycle test, components are exposed to millions of pressure loads in the form of a sine or trapezoid curve. Weak spots can be identified and eliminated early in R&D. Poppe + Potthoff supports industry-leading companies to achieve the highest level of component quality through testing to meet the highest safety requirements. Extensive testing strengthens the technology’s confidence, further advancing the fascination for aerospace.
Nitrogen (N) Charging Unit
The PPM nitrogen charger (PPM NCU/HA/35/400) is intended for filling large accumulator systems such as bladder, membrane and piston accumulators.
Compressed Air Booster
Our compressed air booster units are utilized where the existing compressed air supply is no longer sufficient due to an increased pressure requirement for special tools, machines or systems.
Hose Test Bench with Laser Measurement
When hoses are subjected to pressure, they often change from their original form and dimension. The test stand has an integrated automatic laser and length measurement system and can measure torsion easily. In addition, a quick connector system enables the hoses to be replaced rapidly.
Pipe and Hose Test Bench
Hoses, pipes and pipe connections must reliably withstand operational pressures and predefined pressures during testing. To prove the component and material quality, they are exposed to pressure, sometimes to the point of failure or bursting.
High-Pressure Burst Test Stand
Some components are exposed to extremely high pressures during operation and must be tested for quality and material fatigue. Our high-pressure test bench for burst pressure tests up to 15,000 bar can put any component to the test.
Multipurpose Autofrettage
The multipurpose autofrettage system is ideal for research and development but is also well equipped for smaller serial production lines up to 13000 bar.
Burst and Pressure Cycle Test Stand
A state-of-the-art dual chamber test rig for simultaneous burst and pressure pulsation testing. The rig enables testing flexibility in your lab. A media heating and cooling unit can be installed to cover an even wider range of test requirements.
Double Chamber Test Rig for Burst and Pressure Cycle Tests
The double-chamber test bench, in which up to ten DUTs (devices under test) can be tested simultaneously at an ambient temperature of -60°C to 180°C, offers a flexible system for your laboratory. It is equipped with 3x media circuits to enable testing with oil, water and water glycol emulsion. The rig enables long-term impulse and burst testing up to 800 bar.
Pressure Cycle Test Bench up to 6000 bar
Various components, such as diesel injection lines, pipes, or (pressure-) sensors in the automotive and aerospace industry are exposed to very high pulsating pressures. To understand the longevity of the material and component quality their service life is tested during long-term pressure cycle tests.
Standard Pressure Cycle Test Rig 500 / 1000 / 2000 bar
The standard pressure cycle test bench serves as the basis for many of our systems and can be upgraded with a wide variety of configurations.
