INDUSTRIAL SERIES HDX MODELS Industrial Series HDX Models are designed for high-capacity tension, compression, bend/flex, and shear testing. Featuring a dual test space and long test stroke, these frames are available in 1,000 kN (225,000 lbf) and 1,500 kN (337,500 lbf) capacities. Understanding the critical importance of operator safety, Instron’s HDX Models incorporate high-quality materials, components, and craftsmanship. Features and Benefits • Two test space design makes changing between tension and compression testing safer and more efficient – no need to remove heavy fixtures • Open-front grip design improves operator safety and throughput, and allows a limited number of jaw faces to cover a large range of specimen sizes • Long test stroke accommodates a variety of test fixtures and applications • Ergonomic handset with a fine position adjustment wheel, two programmable softkeys, start, stop and return functions, and variable speed jog • Powerful, yet user-friendly materials testing software provides repeatable and reproducible results for simple to sophisticated testing requirements • Variable pressure hydraylic power supply provides pressure on demand, reducing heat generation, increasing oil life, and eliminating the need for water cooling • External hydraulic power supply provides convenient table top working surface • Available capacities: • 1000 kN (225,000 lbf) • 1500 kN (337,500 lbf) Testing Applications • Metals - Bar, Plate, Pipe & Tube, Rebar, Structural • Wire - Rod, Strand • Fasteners • Concrete - Cubes, Cylinders, Beams • Wood Accessories • Tensile Grips - button head, threaded-end • In-Head Grip Jaws/Faces - flat, round • Bend/Flex and Shear Fixtures • Fastener Fixtures • Compression Platens - plane and self-aligning • Extensometers, Deflectometers • Low-Capacity Load Cells • Int
