Configuring a Mark-10 System Force Testing Systems Test frame Produces the force needed for the test. A test frame eliminates much of the variability inherent in handheld testing with a force gauge. Motorized and manual models are available. Force sensor / gauge Measures and displays the force produced on the test sample. Ranges available from 0.12 to 500 lbF [0.5 N to 2.5 kN]. Accurate up to ±0.1% of full scale. Control panel For motorized test frames, choose from IntelliMESUR® or EasyMESUR® integrated motion control and data collection solutions. Grips and attachments Choose from a wide range...

Force Gauges Force Gauges Mark-10 digital force gauges can be used in a virtually limitless number of tension and compression testing applications. All force gauges capture the peak force in both tension and compression, and have selectable units of measurement. Capacities are available from 50 gF full scale to 2,000 lbF. Gauges may be handheld or used with a force test stand and gripping fixtures to create a complete testing solution.

Force Gauges Series 7 professional digital force gauges are designed with a number of sophisticated features for the most demanding tension and compression measurement applications, up to 500 lbF (2,500 N). The gauges feature ±0.1% accuracy and a blazingly fast, industry-leading sampling rate of 14,000 Hz, producing reliable results for extremely quick-action tests. Series 5 premium digital force gauges feature a fast sampling rate of 7,000 Hz and ±0.1% accuracy. Additional advanced features such as averaging mode, external trigger mode, password protection, and data memory for 1,000 readings...

Force Gauges The M5-2-COF coefficient of friction (COF) gauge is an integral part of a COF testing system, typically including a motorized test stand and COF fixture. With a capacity of 2 lbF [10 N], the gauge can be used to measure friction for a wide range of materials, ideal for conformance to ASTM D1894 and other relevant standards. Static and kinetic coefficients are displayed on the backlit LCD, and are calculated from a user-programmable sled weight. Series 4 advanced digital force gauges feature a sampling rate of 3,000 Hz and ±0.2% accuracy, producing reliable, accurate results in a...

Force Gauges Series 3 basic digital force gauges feature a sampling rate of 2,000 Hz and ±0.3% accuracy, ideal for numerous applications in virtually every industry. Set point indicators are useful for visual pass/fail testing, while an analog load bar provides graphical representation of applied load. Ultra-compact, reversible housing allows for flexibility in many mounting configurations with space constraints. Series 2 digital force gauges are designed for basic tension and compression force testing applications up to 500 lbF (2,500 N). Peak tension and compression readings are reliably captured...
