 Standard features:


 • Tests can be done in stroke or strain control. 
 • Online graphs of stress vs strain and load vs displacement.
 • Option to save the test profiles.
 • Auto data acquisition settings .
 • Option to view multiple test graphs in one plot.
 • Option to run test in dual rate.
 • Option to remove the extensometer and continue the test in stroke control.
 • Option to stop the test after specified percentage load drop.
 • Limit settings on stroke, strain and load channels.
 • Offline post processing program to analyze the results in MS Excel.
 • Option to batch processing the data.
