Creep Testing Machine (Product Code: SLE/MCE/18) is a compact teaching machine used to show how materials slowly keep extending under a constant load, in engineering and materials science laboratories. Students test lead and plastic specimens, which creep noticeably at room temperature and under low loads, using a simple 8:1 lever load beam and a digital indicator that reads the extension. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Creep is the slow, time-dependent stretching of a material held under constant stress. It governs the life of turbine blades, boiler tubes, lead sheathing and plastic parts, but in metals it normally needs high temperatures and long tests. Lead and plastics creep at room temperature, so this machine brings the whole curve into an ordinary lab session: students hang weights on the hanger, the 8:1 lever multiplies the load on the specimen, and they log time against extension from the digital indicator to plot primary, secondary and tertiary creep.
To study the effect of temperature, freeze or warm the cool-pack, set it beside the specimen and fit the transparent enclosure before loading; then compare creep rates with a room-temperature run. Use specimens from the same batch and read at fixed time intervals so groups can pool results. It suits colleges looking for engineering lab equipment that demonstrates a hard-to-see failure mode quickly.
The Creep Testing Machine is an OEM product of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the company behind the ScienceLab brand. It is produced at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied direct to universities, engineering colleges, polytechnics, dealers and importers without a trading middleman.

Which specimens does the Creep Testing Machine use?
The Creep Testing Machine uses specimens of lead and different plastics. These materials creep significantly at room temperature and under low loads, so students can record a full creep curve within a normal laboratory session.
How does the Creep Testing Machine apply load?
The Creep Testing Machine applies load through a simple lever, or load beam, with a mechanical advantage of 8:1. Weights added to a weight hanger give a steady, uniform tensile load, and a ball-bearing pivot ensures the specimen is loaded correctly.
Can the Creep Testing Machine show the effect of temperature?
Yes. With the Creep Testing Machine, students freeze or heat a cool-pack, place it next to the specimen and fit the transparent enclosure, which preserves the temperature around the specimen during the test for comparison with room-temperature results.
How is creep measured on the Creep Testing Machine?
On the Creep Testing Machine, a digital indicator measures the extension of the specimen under load while students record the elapsed time. Plotting extension against time shows the stages of creep and the steady creep rate.
Who manufactures the Creep Testing Machine?
The Creep Testing Machine is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and follow-up come straight from the manufacturer.
Are weights and specimens included with the Creep Testing Machine?
