Precision ball screw and fast acting servo motor provides controllability at very light loads and rigidity for loads to machine capacity.
Integral operator station with emergency stop button, manual jog controls, load cell and extensometer connections, digital closed loop control and data acquisition electronics.
Three fast acting digital controllers are available for accurate and repeatable testing.
Bench top models from 2KN to 50KN provide the flexibility to test biomaterials, wire, textiles, packaging, elastomers, plastics, films, foils and other materials with confidence.
Floor Standing Models from 50KN to 150KN accommodate larger specimens and fixturing. With a variety of grips and fixtures, all eXpert machines are capable of performing tests in compression, tension and flexure.

Digital Controller
This is a stand-alone controller that features load and crosshead position inputs, enough memory to store 6 test methods, data analysis for measuring peak load, peak stress, load at extension, extension at load, average load, load at break, extension at break, stiffness and free height. The controller is ideal for product or QC testing and is capable of displaying pass/fail messages after each test based on user specified limits. Results can be uploaded to a PC via the on-board RS-232 serial port for import into test reports, spread sheets or database programs. Raw XY data can also be uploaded for further analysis or for generating load vs. deflection curves. The controller can be programmed to run at a constant rate until the specimen breaks, run to a load and hold for a user specified period of time, or cycle between load or position limits.

Precise Controller
The Precise Controller features a keypad, an upper LCD character display for user input and indication, a lower graphical display for viewing stress vs. strain curves plus push-buttons for test start and return to home. The Precise has the ability to perform closed loop load, position or strain controlled tests to sample break or to a user defined setpoint. Test results including date, time, specimen number, peak load, ultimate tensile strength, offset yield strength, modulus of elasticity, elongation at break plus raw data can be exported to a Windows based computer via the RS232 port.

WinTest : Material Testing Software
The most powerful and versatile solution features Win Test, ENKAY’s popular PC/Windows based materials testing system. Standard with Win Test are load, crosshead position, axial strain, transverse strain and auxiliary input channels. A comprehensive set of monotonic, segmented or cyclic servo control profiles under load, position or strain control is available which provides the capability to perform virtually any type of test. Test reports featuring test and specimen information, results and a stress vs. strain curve can be printed or readied for email. A statistical summary for a group of like tests can also be generated. All results or raw data can be exported to a database or spreadsheet program for further review.

Notes:
(1)Total Crosshead Travel is calculated without load cells, grips and fixtures. Longer strokes can be accommodated by ordering an extended column frame.
(2)Total Vertical Test Space is the distance from the top surface of the base platen to the bottom surface of the moving crosshead, excluding load cell, grips and fixtures. Larger openings can be accommodated by ordering an extended column frame.
