This machine can impose cyclic bending-straightening cycles over a 48-inch or 72-inch bending radius, with internal pressure up to 10,000 psi and intermittent axial loads up to 120,000 lbs. Tubing samples can also be tested strictly in fatigue. Data are stored on a dedicated computerized acquisition system. Built as part of the Elongation and Diametral Growth JIP .
