Building a Fatigue Testing Machine
Hello All,
First time posting here...
It has always been a dream of mine to build a dynamic mechanical tester and perform fatigue tests on different alloys pertaining to Aluminium and Titanium.
I have a background in Mechanical engineering, but not so much on the controller part.
I am looking at a system servo hydraulic system with a 45LPM pump, a Moog valve , an actuator that can go up to a frequency of 25-30Hz at a displacement of 0.5mm (I think?), a load cell and the frame.
I am lost on how to go about programming the controller. I was thinking of LabView. Do you have any recommendations or text on how to design this system from scratch? Any help on choosing the right actuator design would also be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!
