3.Mechanical Features
3.1 Load Frame:
The frames all incorporate human factor considerations in the design to ensure safety, reduce operator fatigue, and provide the highest level of flexibility. Extremely robust crosshead guidance is incorporated in all frame designs providing the highest level of lateral crosshead stiffness.
3.2 High accuracy: The preloaded precision ball-screw with high speed & low noise ensures high speed and position measurement accuracy and less noise.
3.3 High stiffness frame: The load frame is with 4 columns and heavy duty pre-loaded bearings. Preloaded ball screws, precision guidance columns, and a symmetrical drive system improve frame stiffness and alignment
3.4 Safety features: The testing machine stops automatically when the change in the test force exceeds a specified value during operations.
3.5 Over-stroke limiter: The range of the crosshead movement mechanically limited. Comfortable working area The wide legroom under the load unit provides a comfortable working area for attaching and removing jigs
