The ValuTest-D test stand comprises a basic leadscrew and crosshead to apply tensile and compressive forces up to 1000 N (220 lbf ).
Its handwheel allows the operator to position the crosshead along any point of its 450mm travel - each rotation of the handwheel moves it by 3mm.
It is a low-cost test stand designed for elementary tests. Not recommended for applications requiring precise measurement of crosshead movement.
Choose from the range of Mecmesin digital force gauges to select the most appropriate instrument to measure the load.
