Optional Equipment
 |
A wide range of force gauges and gripping fixtures |
 |
Digital travel display* 6" [150 mm] travel, 0.0005" [0.01 mm] resolution, SPC output for automated data collection. Requires travel stops kit. For output of travel data to a PC, the following items are required: 09-1066 cable and MRS100A communication adapter. Note: continuous data output rate is limited to 2 Hz. |
 |
Horizontal / wall mounting kit Pair of mounting legs for adapting the test stand to a bench, instead of the base. |
| Column extension Column can be extended to custom lengths (see Ordering Information) |
|
|
Eye end adapters Allow for quick grip installation and removal, and prevent grip rotation. Mount to common test frames, load cells, and force gauges. |
* Because load cell deflection and system deflection are present and not automatically compensated for, this equipment is recommended for applications requiring at least 0.2 in [5 mm] of travel distance.
