Test Principle
The air pressure system applies a static load to the specified location of the bicycle pedal or frame. A load sensor monitors the applied force. When the load reaches the preset value or exceeds the safety limit, the PLC control system automatically stops the test, ensuring safety, repeatability, and reliability.
Operation Instructions
(1) Secure the bicycle frame in the test fixture, ensuring pedals and frame are firmly fixed.
(2) Connect the main power and start the PLC touchscreen interface.
(3) Set test parameters: static load, air pressure range, and number of cycles.
(4) Start the test; the machine automatically applies the static load.
(5) Monitor real-time pressure and system status during testing.
(6) The system automatically stops when the preset safety limit or specimen failure occurs.
(7) Regularly inspect fixtures and air system, maintain lubrication and cleanliness.
Test Procedures
(1) Mount the bicycle frame onto the test fixture and secure it.
(2) Set static load and air pressure parameters.
(3) Start the static load test; PLC automatically controls the applied pressure.
(4) Monitor real-time pressure to ensure the safety of the device and specimen.
(5) Upon test completion, the system automatically stops.
(6) Inspect pedals and frame for deformation or damage.
(7) Record test data and generate a report.
Maintenance Information
(1) Inspect test fixtures, air system, and load sensors regularly.
(2) Keep all moving parts clean and well-lubricated.
(3) Verify PLC and sensor calibration periodically.
(4) Ensure power connections and cables are intact and secure.
