Here’s a guide on how to work an Analogue compression testing machine, incorporating mathematics data and images:
1. Components and Setup:
- Key Components:
- Loading frame (applies compressive force)
- Load cell (measures applied force)
- Dial gauge (measures deformation)
- Specimen platform (holds the specimen)
- Handwheel or hydraulic pump (controls loading)
- Autographic recorder (optional, for continuous data recording)

2. Specimen Preparation:
- Ensure specimen meets required dimensions and standards for the material being tested.
- Measure precise dimensions (length, width, height) using a caliper or micrometer.
- Calculate initial cross-sectional area (A0) using the formula: A0 = length × width (for rectangular specimens).
3. Machine Calibration:
- Verify zero readings on load cell and dial gauge.
- Conduct calibration checks using standard weights or reference blocks, if available.
4. Specimen Placement:
- Position specimen on the platform, ensuring it’s centered and aligned vertically.
5. Loading Application:
- Engage the handwheel or hydraulic pump to apply compressive force gradually.
- Monitor load cell and dial gauge readings throughout the test.
6. Data Collection:
- Record load (P) and deformation (δ) readings at regular intervals (e.g., every 1000 N or 0.05 mm).
- If using an autographic recorder, it will generate a continuous load-deformation curve.
7. Calculations:
- Compressive Stress (σ): σ = P / A0 (force per unit area)
- Compressive Strain (ε): ε = δ / L0 (deformation per unit length)
- Modulus of Elasticity (E): E = σ / ε (material’s stiffness)
- Ultimate Compressive Strength (σu): The maximum stress the specimen can withstand before failure.
8. Graph Generation:
- Plot load-deformation data to create a stress-strain curve, visually representing material behavior.
9. Failure Point:
- Stop loading when specimen fails or reaches a predetermined limit.
- Record the ultimate compressive strength (σu) at failure.
10. Report Generation:
- Document specimen details, test conditions, results, and calculations.
- Include stress-strain curve in the report.

Additional Notes:
- Loading rate can influence results; follow material-specific standards.
- Ensure safety measures are in place, as sudden specimen failure can cause injury.
- Regularly maintain and calibrate the machine for accurate results.
