The MATEST Pipe Testing Frame 1000 kN is a robust steel frame designed for testing large pipes with external diameters ranging from 450 mm to 2600 mm and lengths up to 2500 mm. Constructed from structural steel and bolted together with high-strength bolts, the frame is easily assembled and disassembled for transport or site relocation. It must be securely locked to a concrete base prepared by the customer. Featuring two motor-operated, two-speed winches to raise and lower the upper crossbeams, the frame allows precise positioning secured by locking pins. The lower bearers, 2500 mm long, support pipes with flat or “V” shaped profiles as required by EN 1916 specifications. An upper loading beam floats on a seat for accurate load application during testing.
