With a 100kN capacity and a number of new features, the equipment is intended to maximize productivity and efficiency in quality control, production, research, or training settings. The unit can travel at speeds down to one micron per minute, with less than 0.2% error. This high load measurement accuracy is achieved by improved extension resolution (less than 0.1 micron) compared with previous models. Sensitive rupture detectors are fitted as standard automatically to detect sudden drops in force when testing fragile or flexible materials. The robust twin-column design is said to ensure precise results during environmental sample testing.
