Creep machine for helicoid spring specimens

ContactRNDr. Luboš Kloc, CSc.

Two creep machines for high strain sensitivity tests at medium stresses.

Special creep machines for helicoid spring specimens tests at medium stresses involving stress changes.


  • Temp. range: 300°C to 1100°C

  • Stress range: 20MPa to approx. 150MPa

  • Strain sensitivity: better than 10-6

  • Strain rate range: 10-9 to 10-12 s-1

  • Atmosphere: argon
