Mecmesin MultiTest-dV precision control tension and compression tester

Mecmesin has a range of universal testers with a focus on precision control. Its positional resolution of 0.001 mm means the MultiTest-dV offers control even for entry-level systems.

Sophisticated control electronics lie behind the product’s stylish control panel, comprising four multifunctional operating buttons, a clear, bright colour display and Mecmesin’s precision control wheel. The versatile wheel enables ultrafine crosshead control and rapid crosshead repositioning, while doubling up for changing machine settings of speed, set positions, and test type and parameters. The wheel is surrounded by coloured LED lights that indicate the test stand status at all times.

Simply select one of four test modes, dial in speed and displacement in either or both directions, plus test cycling requirements, and connect a Mecmesin advanced force gauge (AFG) for load limit control. Test speed is continuously variable from 0.1 to 1200 mm/min, with a resolution of 0.1 mm/min and an accuracy of ±0.2% of indicated speed.

Three models are rated at 0.5, 1 and 2.5 kN respectively. The 0.5 and 1 kN models have extended columns for highly elastic sample testing, and all three accept the company’s range of digital AFG.

With an extensive range of standard grips and fixtures, the MultiTest-dV is a robust and versatile testing platform for a wide range of routine testing.
