Test frame
The single-column MultiTest-dV features a ballscrew-driven motorised test frame, which is designed to apply tensile and compressive forces from 2N right up to 2.5 kN. There are 3 models in the range with ratings of 0.5 kN, 1 kN and 2.5 kN and offering crosshead travel up to 1200 mm (47").
The dovetailed crosshead design ensures operators can quickly and easily attach digital force gauges or ELS loadcells, which are automatically recognised by the software. The base plate of the MultiTest is pre-drilled with threaded holes to directly accept a wide range of grips and fixtures.
Its versatile construction means that the frame has enough daylight to accommodate tall specimens and enough travel to measure the tensile strength of the most elastic of materials.
Data acquisition and plotting
The MultiTest-dV when configured with an Advanced Force Gauge (AFG) optionally enables you to capture test and performance data through VectorPro Lite, but can act as a standalone tester for peak readings.
Connect your computer
The MultiTest-dV requires a Windows PC to run the VectorPro MT software and interact with the ELS loadcell. Its compact design and small footprint make it the perfect selection as a bench-top device.
