The CS2 Series of digital force testing equipment is designed for the production and laboratory testing of applications up to 5 kN (1100 lbf). These force-testing machines are ideal for easy testing in the plastic, rubber, packaging, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, electronics, and wood industries.
These durable force measurement machines offer a user-friendly and intuitive approach for various types of testing, including tensile testing (Pull), compression testing (Push), shear testing, flexural testing, and advanced multi-stage testing. They are designed to comply with ISO and ASTM testing standards, ensuring reliable and standardized results.
The CS2 Series is a 2-in-1 laptop console with a 13” touch screen that is user-friendly, sturdy, and reliable for usage in production environments. The screen offers graphical and tabular results and a very intuitive user interface regardless of the operator's skill level. Setting up a test, selecting runs, and presenting reports can be accomplished with just a few simple touches.
Some of the parameters that need to be set up include limit testing (load, distance and time), break testing, cyclic and loop testing, multi-stage/user-defined testing, spring rate calculation, and height measurement.
The CS2 Series has frame capacities of 1 kN (225 lbf) and 5 kN (1124 lbf).
The CS2-225 offers a large work area with 180 mm throat depth and a 500 mm crosshead travel. This model is ideally suited for testing applications up to 1 kN (225 lbf). The CS2-1100 offers 150 mm throat depth and an 800 crosshead travel and is ideal for testing applications up to 5 kN /1124 lbf).
Both models have greater than 1% speed accuracy.
There is no need for a personal computer, proprietary software, or programming language skills.
