The Alternating Bending Fatigue Machine is a further evolution of the popular Rotating fatigue Machine. All these parts are enclosed by a transparent safety guard, which ensures rotating components are kept away from the user but full view of parts and count is kept. Rather than rotating a specimen to fatigue failure, the Alternating Bending Fatigue Machine induces an alternating displacement to the free end of a cantilevered test specimen in order to fatigue fail the part. A heavy base plate houses the control box, motor, fluctuating components, test specimen and digital counter.
