The ETM type C Series addresses the needs of standardized and routine testing, providing the user high quality at the most affordable price. The dual column testing systems are suited for tension and/or compression applications with load range requirements from 20kN to 50kN. They are typically used for quality control and production testing.

Typical specimens: Small components, reinforced plastics, metals, wire, composites, elastomers, wood products, textiles, biomaterials, paper products, adhesives, foam, consumer products

Environmental simulation: Environmental chamber

New Features:

· Robust guidance columns increase lateral stiffness and ensure linear crosshead travel. This results in accurate crosshead alignment thus reducing variability in measurement data and producing better overall accuracy

· Non-clutched drives, rated for full speed at maximum force

· Compact design saves lab space

· Wider test width

High Quality at affordable price

Ø Pre-loaded ball screws and heavy duty bearings assure long life with zero backlash as well as linear low force and through zero performance. The result is accurate and repeatable measurements that truly represent the specimen characteristics rather than load frame deficiencies

Ø Fully-protected lead screw covers provide longer life and greater operator protection

Ø Easy-to-clean aluminum column covers with chamfered corners to facilitate access to the test area. T-slots are built in for simple, convenient attachment and positioning of testing accessories

Ø High-speed, low vibration, world-class, maintenance-free, Japanese made AC servo motor and servo controller

Ø Photoelectrical encoder built in servo motor system is for position measurement of crosshead

Ø Built-in bidirectional load cell is assembled in the middle crosshead to prevent any collisions and simple to perform compression or tension tests

Ø Dual action over-travel limits on all frames provide the highest level of safety and meet all international standards

Ø Remote control keypad facilitates test operation

Ø DTC-350 controller provides high speed data acquisition with 8-CH A/D converting
