Product Description
HD-F735 Chair Arm and Leg Tester
Products description:
The use of Chair Arm and Leg Tester to evaluate the ability of the chair to withstand stresses that occur as a result of repetitive loading that can be imposed on the armrest structure. Loading of this type is the result of using the armrests as a support when getting into or out of the chair.
Design standard:BIFMA X 5.1-2011 clause 18 Leg strength test;

Advanced Safety and PrecisionEquipped with an emergency stop button, overload protection, and safety shield, the Chair Arm and Leg Tester prioritizes operator safety during testing. The highly accurate load measurement system boasts a 1% F.S. accuracy and a fast response time (1 s), ensuring reliable and repeatable results that provide actionable insights for chair durability assessment.
Flexible and User-Friendly OperationThe machines adjustable pneumatic actuators, customizable clamps, and digital touchscreen/PTC control make setup and operation convenient for various chair sizes and testing parameters. Test speed, stroke length, and cycles can be tailored to replicate real-world usage conditions, while the 70 dB noise ceiling offers a quieter laboratory environment.
Comprehensive Data ManagementData export via USB or RS232 interface streamlines the process of sharing, archiving, and analyzing test results. With digital programming and a programmable cycle counter, the unit supports up to 999,999 test cycles, making it a highly efficient instrument for ongoing or batch testing tasks in commercial and laboratory settings.
FAQs of Chair Arm and Leg Tester:
Q: How does the Chair Arm and Leg Tester simulate real-world conditions during tests?
A: The tester uses programmable pneumatic cylinders to repeatedly apply force to chair arms and legs, with adjustable parameters such as load (up to 5000N), stroke (0300mm), and frequency (simulating 10,000200,000 cycles). This replicates the stresses and wear chairs experience during actual use, ensuring realistic durability assessment.
Q: What types of chairs can be tested using this equipment?
A: Thanks to the provided adjustable fixing clamps and customizable mounting options, the tester accommodates a wide range of standard chair sizes and designs. If required, specific clamps can be fabricated to fit unique chair models, making it highly versatile.
Q: Where is the data from each test stored and how can it be exported?
A: Test data is processed and stored using a digital LCD display and can be easily exported for detailed analysis via USB or RS232 interfaces. This allows integration with laboratory information systems and facilitates archiving or reporting.
Q: What safety features are integrated into the Chair Arm and Leg Tester?
A: Safety is emphasized through features like an emergency stop button, overload protection, physical safety shields, and automatic shut-off functions. These ensure safe operation for users during maintenance or testing.
Q: How is the test cycle programmed and monitored?
A: Operators can program the number of cycles (up to 999,999) and adjust testing speed (1030 cycles/min) using the digital touchscreen or PLC control system. The machine provides real-time monitoring with a digital counter and display for continuous feedback.
Q: Why is compliance with BIFMA, EN 1335-3, and GB standards important?
A: Adhering to these internationally recognized standards ensures that chair durability testing is reliable, repeatable, and accepted by regulatory bodies. This compliance is essential for commercial credibility and product certification.
