Specimen blanking machines for specimen preparation of metals

Hydraulic specimen blanking machine type MCut 65

Hydraulic specimen blanking machine type RZ 100

Range of application
Nowadays test pieces from steel sheet and metal foils
are economically and accurately produced using speci
men blanking machines. The standards, e.g.
ISO 6892, ASTM A 370, ... stipulate that the test results
must not be influenced by any material change caused
by strainhardening at the test piece edge zone.

O-shape specimen blanking machines

(RZ 100 / RZ 150)
The closed shape (Oshape) requires precut strips
70 ... 80 mm wide. These specimen blanking machines
are already equipped with a table extension.

PI 262 2.0812

Numerous structural examinations of steel sheet have

shown that the strainhardening zone along the cut
ting line is generally a maximum 10 % of test piece
thickness. This is achieved by a low cutting speed and
special blanking tool design and offers substantial eco
nomic advantages in the event of subsequent grinding.
In this way high specimen quality is ensured.
We offer following models:
C-shape specimen blanking machines
(M-Cut 65)
The open shape of specimen blanking machines and
blanking tools (Cshape) also allows specimens to be
taken from panels. If several blanking tools are used
the roller table version of the table extension is recom
mended: So blanking tools not being used at that time
can be put aside. With table extension, tool changes
take about 20 seconds, offering significant timesavings
where tool changes are frequent.
The blanking machine MCut 65 (with a compressive
force of 650 kN) is suitable for the material thicknesses
0.04 to 6 mm (depending on tensile strength and speci
men shape).

Blanking tools
Blanking tools can be produced exactly to customers
requirements, an example being tools made from a spe
cial steel which were produced with additional guides
to enable dumbbell specimens to be punched from foils
with a thickness of 0.04 mm and a tensile strength of
2,150 MPa. Depending on the strength of the material,
between 20,000 and 150,000 specimens can be pro
duced with the tools, which can then be resharpened.
Advantages/features
Fast, costefficient production of tensile specimens
No specialists required anyone can operate the
machine after a brief training period
Manufacture of very highquality specimens by
finishing with a specimen grinding machine
Robust, easily maintained machines
Long edge life of the blanking tools and possibility of
repeated resharpening
