Mark-10 Advanced Test Frames (Series F): F105, F305, F505, F505H + INTELLIMESUR®
This family of force testers is designed for tension and compression force testing applications, with force capacities up to 500 lbF (2.2 kN). Select from vertical or horizontal orientations, along with a broad range of force sensor capacities and an expansive array of grips and fixtures.
Set up tests, record data, and analyze data via IntelliMESUR® software. From basic tests to multi-step sequencing, IntelliMESUR® is fully integrated with Series F systems. Select from a pre-configured tablet control panel or standalone software for your own Windows device.
Characterize and analyze material behavior with the optional Materials Testing Calculations Module , featuring a suite of common calculations such as tensile strength, Young’s modulus, yield point, and more.
Coefficient of Friction (COF) Measurement is also available through an optional module.
Feature | Description |
---|---|
Design
| Rigid and precise by design. Exceptionally rigid frames feature custom extrusion designs, engineered for stiffness. Factory compensation of test frames and force sensors ensure position accuracy of ±0.002 in / 0.05 mm under any load, at any position. |
Stepper Motors and Controllers | Stepper motors and controllers drive a ballscrew and linear guideway for smooth, quiet operation, with virtually no speed variation under load. |
Modularity
| Conveniently modular. Frame bases can be removed to accommodate column extensions and alternative mounting configurations. Most electronics are housed in a self-contained enclosure, easily accessed and replaced if needed. Integrated T-slots along the column accommodate add-ons. |
External Limit Switches
| External limit switches. Solid-state upper and lower limit switches may be used as test limits or as test exceptions. Dual-graduated rulers aid in switch placement. |
Force Sensor Interface
| Seamless force sensor interface. Series FS05 smart force sensors mount directly to the crosshead of models F105, F305, F505, and F505H, without any connection cables. Ranges available from 0.12 to 500 lbF [0.5 N to 2.5 kN]. Accurate to ±0.1% of full scale. Series R07 S-beam type force sensors accommodate higher force ranges, also compatible with Plug & Test® technology. Ranges available from 50 to 1,500 lbF [250 N to 7.5 kN]. Accurate to ±0.15% of full scale. |
Easy-to-Service Electronics
| Most electronics are housed in an integrated module, easily replaced without special tools or processes. |
