PT087 Dynamic Flexison Tester - Passport Bending Fatigue Test Machine
Product Overview
The PT087 Dynamic Flexison Tester is a self-contained benchtop instrument designed to evaluate the dynamic bending fatigue resistance of passport booklets, ID card booklets, and similar multi-layer document structures. It reproduces the repeated flexing motion that travel documents undergo during manual handling, automated readers, and wallet storage.
Equipped with a color touchscreen interface, operators can easily configure test parameters such as cycle count, frequency, and bending length. The system is also supplied with a 40 N static weight to support static-load bending tests, making the PT087 suitable for both dynamic fatigue and static deflection protocols.
Compact footprint of 550 x 370 x 550 mm, 52 kg net weight, and universal AC 100 - 230 V power make the PT087 easy to deploy in passport test labs and personalization centers.
1. Dynamic Bending Fatigue Test Simulates repeated flexing of passport booklets to measure fatigue life and detect early failure of covers, spine, and inner pages. | 2. Color Touchscreen Control Intuitive on-screen interface for setting cycle count, test frequency, bending length, and other parameters without complex training. |
3. 40 N Static Test Weight Included Randomly supplied 40 N weight enables static bending / deflection tests in addition to dynamic fatigue cycles. | 4. Self-Contained Benchtop Design Compact all-in-one unit with universal AC power, ready for immediate deployment in QC labs and personalization centers. |
