Bending Device For Rigid Non-Metallic Conduits For Electrical Lab Training Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders
Bending Device For Rigid Non-Metallic Conduits For Electrical Lab Training.
Bending Device For Rigid Non-Metallic Conduits - For Electrical Lab Training
Conduits used in electrical installations shall possess adequate
mechanical strength. One of the tests used for ascertaining the
mechanical strength of conduits is the bending test.
The Bending Device For Rigid Non-Metallic Conduits
consists of a base plate fitted with a pin on which interchangeable
formers of specified sizes can be kept. A screw-operated clamp holds the
test specimen in position against the former.
Two
manually operated levers having their pivot points at the centre of the
former holding pin are provided for bending the conduit. The bending
rollers are in form of metallic cylinders of the required shape and size
and mounted on ball bearings to give a smooth movement. The central
axis of the bending rollers is adjusted for conduits of different
diameters by holding them at different locations on the levers.
