Impulse Test Machines
RKN impulse test machines cover static and dynamic testing of flexible hoses. They use a high-quality hydraulic system with a dedicated pressure intensifier and long-life seals. The HMI, with easy-to-use and customisable software, generates the test report automatically.
Technical Features
Burst Test Machines
RKN burst test machines are custom-built for pressure and burst tests of flexible hoses. A reliable hydraulic unit with a dedicated pressure kit gives a controlled pressure ramp.
Technical Features
Take-Up & Accumulator Stands
RKN designs and builds take-up and accumulator stands for coiling hoses, each engineered for the customer's hose type, dimensions and line layout.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which standards do RKN impulse test machines test to?
SAE J343, ISO 6802 and ISO 6803. They reach test pressures up to 1000 bar (14,500 psi) and frequencies up to 1.3 Hz, and test up to 6 hoses at a time, or up to 24 with additional manifolds.
What is the maximum pressure of RKN burst test machines?
Up to 7000 bar (101,500 psi), customisable, with a controlled pressure ramp, oil or water as test fluid, and testing to EN ISO 19879, EN ISO 20024 and DIN EN ISO 1402.
Does RKN also build take-up and accumulator stands?
Yes. RKN designs and builds take-up and accumulator stands for each customer's hose type, dimensions and line layout, with pitch-controlled hose guide, synchronised drive with auto-stop and PLC control.
