Optical extensometers for effortless assessment of mechanical properties complying with industrial standards
OPTICAL EXTENSOMETRY FOR MATERIAL TESTING
- Compliance with ISO 9513: Class 1 (Class 0.5); ASTME 83-10: Class B-1
- Compliance with ISO 6892-1 in the strain rate control mode
- All measuring devices are suitable for evaluating anisotropic properties according to ISO 527-1
- Applicable to high-temperature and climate-chamber measurements according to ISO 6892-2
- Axial and radial neck detection and many more features
ALL OUR DEVICES ARE POWERED BY OUR VERSATILE DIGITAL IMAGE CORRELATION SOFTWARE
The Alpha DIC software is an industry-recognized instrument for optical measurement and analysis of deformation, vibration, and strain of virtually any material or structure.
- Alpha follows a modular approach offering optimized ergonomy for advanced research and routine measurement
- Alpha has a wide palette of engineering testing options and software tools for any type of testing (tensile, compression, torsion, shear, flexural)
- Alpha DIC is founded upon the digital image correlation measuring technique and offers cutting-edge machine vision technology with specialized features
HT Optical Extensometer
HT is a professional optical extensometer for high-temperature applications suitable for temperatures ranging from ambient temperature up to 1400 °C.
The HT uses the same user-friendly DIC software interface as the ONE series, which allows you to focus on the experiment and data acquisition. Besides materials testing at elevated temperatures, the HT is suitable for any application requiring a precise and accurate optical extensometer with a small field of view.
HT TECHNICAL DATA
- Field of View: 47 × 41 mm
- Resolution ISO 9513: Class 0.5
- ASTME 83: Class A (GL > 15 mm)
- Gauge Length: Selectable single or multiple gauge lengths
- Sampling Rate: 75 – 200 Hz
- Axial and radial neck detection
- Lighting: Auto-switching monochromatic light
ROD Optical Extensometer
The ROD is an optical extensometer optimized for tensile testing of reinforcing steel. Because ROD is designed for harsh industrial environments, it is equipped with dust-proof casing and glass-protected dual cameras.
The unique ITT functionality of the Alpha software allows for measuring specimens with an oxide or rust layer falling off during testing. This feature gives ROD a significant advantage compared with standard optical extensometers, which are, under such conditions, almost unusable.
