MultiTest 2.5-xt (2.5kN)
Force testing system, designed with a touch screen interface for tensile testing and compression measurements
The MultiTest 2.5-xt is a Mecmesin's mid-range programmable, yet self-contained force tensile testing system rated to 2.5kN. Using a touch screen interface, it is ideal for the production environment, where repeatable, accurate routine tests are performed and requires minimum set-up time and training.
The system uses Mecmesin’s high performance Intelligent Loadcells for excellent resolution and outstanding accuracy.
Programmable through simple touch screen user-interface
Quick start tensile tests - select test from menu, then press 'Start'
Auto recognition and configuration of Mecmesin intelligent loadcells
Key Benefits At A Glance
- Self-contained tensile testing machine - no PC required
- Measures force and displacement
- Create and store multiple test programs
- Five 'Favourite' buttons for direct access to frequently used programs
- Results can be displayed as ‘Pass’ or ‘Fail’
- Upgradable to run programs written in Mecmesin's powerful Emperor™ software
- Password protection to safeguard programs
- Auto-loadcell recognition/configuration
Automated testing = Maximum efficiency
The PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or Digital Control Interface facilitates additional automation, enabling control of external devices, which can perform other tasks normally undertaken manually. Using a PLC allows tests to run safely without the requirement of an operator present, thereby maximising productivity, lowering costs and minimising mistakes, often caused through human error.
