Twin column test stands
09 June, 2009 | SI Instruments
Mecmesin twin column testing frames provide the opportunity to test physically larger specimens and apply loads up to 25 kN. The increased load allows samples up to 400 mm wide and 950 mm high to be accommodated. Each test frame has been designed to deliver high stiffness — often necessary in high load, low elongation testing applications — and are driven by twin, pre-loaded, synchronised ballscrews.
