Universal testing machine MTI 30K

computer-controlledautomatedmaterials

A universal load cell, universal joint and fixture linkages are provided. A linkage rod passes freely through holes machined into the upper and lower surfaces of the moving crosshead and connects to the system load cell. This load fixture linkage rod then projects simultaneously into both test bays. This dual test bay configuration allows for easy setup of two entirely different types of tests without having to remove and reposition hardware on a frequent basis. Force and displacement and strain are automatically measured, displayed and reported. MTI automatic 24-bit Force and Strain Signal Processors are supplied with each system, resulting in data accuracy and measurement resolution approaching one part in one hundred thousand in a fully automatic mode of operation. The load frame crosshead displacement measurement is also automatic, with resolution of 0.00005 inches for all tests.
