LOAD HOLD When you want to hold a load, first create your step with a load variable; either a tension or compression load. Next, select the Load Hold step. Then specify the duration for your hold period. The maximum allowable hold duration is 15 minutes (900 seconds). • Select the test mode- either Tension or Compression. • Enter the Load Limit (target).
• Enter the Test Speed. • Select the Hold symbol.
• Select the Load Hold symbol. • Enter the Hold Duration value.
The maximum allowed hold period is 15 minutes (900 sec).
Two types of Hold Moves are available: Load Hold or Distance Hold. Both Holds can be used to collect Data or Not Collect Data during the Hold period.
In our example, we setup a Tensile Load Limit. The Load Hold Move is used to hold the load for 15 minutes.
