A floating arm mechanism (patent pending) ensures tests can be performed reliably without the arms disengaging from samples.
DSES-1000
Long-Travel Extensometer for Soft Materials
A Long-Travel Extensometer That Is Now Easier to Use and Even More Precise The DSES-1000 is a long-travel contact-type extensometer able to measure displacement up to the breakpoint in tensile tests of rubber and other soft materials. The upper and lower arms are clamped to respective gauge positions using a simple single operation, with each arm tracking sample elongation independently.
Features
-
The DSES-1000 can measure elongations up to 4000% for gauge lengths of 10 mm, 2000% for gauge lengths of 20 mm, 1600% for gauge lengths of 25 mm, or 1000% for gauge lengths of 40 mm.
A floating arm mechanism (patent pending) ensures tests can be performed reliably without the arms disengaging from samples.
-
Offers ±0.2% precision for displacement measurements between 50 and 1000 mm, allowing measurement of long displacement distances can be measured with high precision.
-
The lateral quick clamping mechanism makes it easy to center the mounted position of extensometer edge with the sample.
The extensometer can also be attached to the sample first, before chucking the sample.
