Features

• Double-acting servo-hydraulic actuator with force capacity up to ±600 kN (±22 kip)
• High-stiffness, precision-aligned, self-reacting load frame with twin columns and actuator in lower base/top crosshead,
• Mechanical/hydraulic/pneumatic anti vibration pads
• Rated for operations up to 200Hz cyclic operations
• 150 mm (6 in) of usable stroke
• Choice of hydraulic configuration and dynamic performance to suit application
• Adjustable upper crosshead with hydraulic lifts and locks for easy adjustment of daylight
• Compatible with a large range of grips, fixtures, chambers, video extensometers, protective shields, and other accessories
• Touch screen/Operator control panel for basic machine operation viz., hydraulics on/off, low/high pressure, E-stop, actuator jogging up/down slow/fast, cross head height adjustment & lock/unlock, hydraulic grips operation etc.
• Intelli mount feature to protect the sample during test set-up. System works in stroke control mode to adjust the actuator to maintain load within a window specified by user at the time of specimen loading.
