DEVELOPMENT AND FUNDAMENTAL PERFORMANCE
OF DUAL-SPINDLE ROTATING BENDING FATIGUE TESTING MACHINE
WITH SPECIAL DEVICE PROVIDING CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT
2nd Japan-China Joint Symposium on Fatigue of Engineering Materials and Structures,
October. 17, 2011, Chengdu, China
Background
Background 1
Recently, particular attention has been paying to the fatigue property of
metallic materials in the very high cycle regime to realize the low-carbon
sustainable society.
But, one of difficulties in fatigue tests in the very high cycle regime is to take a
long time to perform the fatigue test. If the fatigue test is performed at the
loading frequency of 50Hz, it takes 200 days to 109 cycles.
Background 2
The fatigue property in corrosive environment is very important because
various kinds of mechanical structures have to be used in corrosive
environments.
But the fatigue property is not clear.
Development of New Testing Machine
★ In order to overcome this difficulty, we have developed special type
of fatigue testing machines in rotating bending, in which four
specimens can be tested simultaneously. Thus a series of fatigue
tests even in gigacycle regime can be carried out within a
reasonable period.
★ Based on this advantageous performance, the name of “GIGA
QUAD” was accepted for this new machine. Accordingly, this
machine is very useful to file up a number of fatigue test date.

Without heat generation
• Fatigue test can be performed under room
temperature without heat generation
• Any cooling system is not required to the
fatigue test. This point is quite differ from
the ultrasonic fatigue tests.
Concluding Remarks
The high performance fatigue testing machine in rotating bending “GIGA
QUAD” has been developed in this work.
Based on a lot of experimental results, the fundamental performance of this
testing machine was confirmed.
Actually, GIGA QUAD are already being used at many laboratories in
universities and industries in JAPAN.
Thus, every customer has informed that GIGA QUAD is successfully used to
obtain a number of fatigue data within a reasonable short period.
