Description:
This a modular, flexible, compact, safe, materials tester allowing students to conduct up to six (6) experiments on seven (7) different material types.
The results of these experiments allow students to gain a thorough understanding of materials properties and how the performance of these effects design.
The fully enclosed unit allows safe 360° viewing maximising visibility for large class sizes.
Data relating to elongation, extension and applied force is fed directly. The software supplied with the interface unit captures and stores the data to allow further data manipulation and processing.
Experimental Capabilities:
- Tensile and compression testing
- Shear (unsymmetrical, symmetrical shear both supported and unsupported)
- Recording of stress-strain diagrams
- Modulus of elasticity testing
- Percentage elongation
- Deep draw testing
- Three-point bending
- Hardness testing
