Model ES30

Manual Test Stand

The ES30 Force Measurement Test Stand is a versatile and economical solution for most compression and tensile testing applications. It can accept a wide variety of sample shapes and sizes and can be configured in many positions due to modular design.

Precision hand wheel operation enables the user to easily and accurately test up to 200 lbF [1 kN] of force. Use the ES30 with any Mark-10 force gauge and grips to create a complete testing solution.

Features

  • Compatible with all Mark-10 force gauges, accessories and grips.
  • Modular design: the entire base may be removed for alternative mounting.
  • Removable base plate with 25 #10-32 threaded holes for fixture mounting.
  • Competitor force gauge mounting kits available.

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. To output data to a PC via USB, use communication adapter part no. MU100 and AC1105 cable.
Notes:
  • Continuous data output rate is limited to 2 Hz.
  • To output force and travel data to a PC, two USB ports are required, one from the force gauge, the other from the travel display via MU100 adapter.
  • 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.
Column extensions
A spacer is supplied between the base and the column, increasing clearance between the force gauge and base (does not increase travel distance). Available in 6", 12", and 24", and custom lengths.
eye end adapters photo Eye end adapters
Allow for quick grip installation and removal, and prevent grip rotation.
Mount to common test frames, load cells, and force gauges.
Competitor force gauge mounting kits
