Key Features

High Precision

Precision-machined pressure bars with excellent straightness and end-face alignment ensure reliable stress wave transmission and high-quality experimental data.

Flexible Configuration

Multiple bar diameters and material options are available to accommodate a wide range of specimen types and testing requirements. The adjustable X–Z support system enables precise alignment and rapid experimental setup.

User-Friendly Operation

The striker bar can be automatically reset after testing. Dedicated analysis software supports one-click data processing, waveform analysis, stress–strain curve generation, and result export.

Enhanced Safety & Durability

A pneumatic-mechanical dual-stage buffering system effectively absorbs residual impact energy, reducing bar wear and extending equipment service life.

 

 Optional Measurement Modules

  • High-Speed Camera Integration
  • Digital Image Correlation (DIC)
  • High/Low Temperature Environmental Chamber

 

Testing Principle

 

The Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) operates based on one-dimensional stress wave theory to characterize material behavior under high strain-rate loading. A striker bar impacts the incident bar to generate an elastic stress wave, which interacts with the specimen between the incident and transmission bars. The incident, reflected, and transmitted waves are recorded by strain gauges. Using classical data reduction methods, the dynamic stress, strain, and strain rate of the specimen are calculated, enabling accurate analysis of material constitutive behavior under impact conditions for research and simulation validation.
