Affordable Interfaces for Productive Testing

The eXpert 560x is available with either of two easy-to-learn and easy-to-use user interfaces. eP Digital Controller - Features load, position andoptional strain inputs; PWM motor drive, 24-key key- pad, 4 line x 20 character LCD display and emergencystop button. Keypad includes functions for test start,return to home, jog up and jog down. Ideal for product testing and quality control applications. Includes cal-culations for peak load, peak stress, average load,minimum load, load at deflection, deflection at load, load at break, deflection at break, stiffness and en-ergy. Up to four password protected test methodscan be stored to memory. At the push of a button, the user can quickly switch between methods for fast ef-ficient testing. Up to 200 test results per method canbe stored. Use the WinCom Live Data Communica- tions program to view an XY test curve real-time on acomputer. WinCOM Live will also display MaximumY, Y at X1, X at Y1, Average Y between X1 and X2 and Slope of XY between Y1 and Y2; where X1, X2, Y1and Y2 are user inputs. Load-deflection curves andtest results can also be exported after each test to a Windows based computer running the WinCOM PlusData Communications program. Users can specify aposition control rate or a load control rate to a load, deflection, time or sample break. Cycling betweenload or deflection values can also be programmed. MTESTQuattro

TM are load, crosshead position, axial strain, transverse strain and auxiliary input channels. A comprehensiveset of monotonic, segmented or cyclic servo controlprofiles under load, position or strain control is avail-able which provides the capability to perform virtuallyany type of test. Test reports featuring test and speci-men information, results and a stress vs. strain curvecan be printedor readied for email. A statistical sum-

All results or raw data can be exported to adatabase or spreadsheet program for further review.Both user interfaces feature high speed 32-bit microprocessors, 20-bit resolution on analog inputchannels and a fast acting servo-update loop for precise control. The 20-bit resolution allows all inputs to operate on a single range, simplifying operation and calibration.All systems perform digital closed loop control of the machine’s servomotor for accurate and repeat-able testing.
