Static Bend Test IRS-T-39 IRS-T-45 IS:516

Algorithmic Rate-of-Loading Control

Manual hydraulic pumps struggle to hold the mandatory 30–40 kN/min loading rate, causing shock loads, inaccurate strength readings, and non-compliance. This machine uses proprietary algorithms to lock into the required loading rate with a strictly linear load increase — automatically holding peak loads for the mandatory 3-minute visual crack inspection.

Dual-Standard Compliance

One machine handles both main-line and turnout sleeper geometries — calibrated for IRS-T-39 and IRS-T-45 with real-time load graphing and SCADA integration.

IRS-T-39 — main line PSC sleepers, MR & MF at 30–40 kN/min
IRS-T-45 — turnout sleepers (BG & MG) up to 600 kN
Smooth linear loading — no dynamic spikes that skew results
Automatic 3-minute peak hold for hairline crack inspection
Reduces false rejections from improper manual loading
Ready for IS:516 new railway testing policy
Heavy-duty frame for long service life in production labs
Precise Loading

Algorithmic feedback loop maintains ±1 kN/min rate control — meeting the exact 30–40 kN/min window required by Indian Railway standards.

Inspection Ready

Digital load curves, peak hold records, and pass/fail logging feed directly into the unified SCADA platform for RDSO inspection documentation.

Universal Design

Handles both T-39 main line and T-45 turnout sleeper geometries on a single machine — no separate equipment for different sleeper types.
