For axial tensile, compression, and cyclic testing on small or delicate specimens.
Our model EAM miniature axial extensometer is designed around our new miniature cross-flexure module. This innovative design provides improved performance and ruggedness over existing units as well as improved cable attachment (a leading cause of sensor failure).
Small, light, and rugged, our ultra-light weight, miniature axial extensometers are typically used for testing small or delicate specimens. These units work equally well on thin sheet, wire, or biomedical materials. Our miniature axial extensometer is designed to fit in the tight space between grips when testing small specimens. Typical models measure only 0.6 inches [15 mm] tall, they weigh as little as 7 grams, and they have very low operating force to limit any influence on small samples. Model EAM - Miniature Axial Extensometer
All model EAM extensometers feature a full, 350 ohm, strain gauge bridge design and are compatible with most any brand test equipment. We can install the proper connector to interface to most any electronics including Instron. If your test frame or set-up does not have the required strain signal conditioner, we can supply stand-alone electronics calibrated with your extensometer. This will allow you to use a chart recorder, digital display, or data acquisition card.
All standard models meet ASTM B-1 and ISO 9513, class 0,5 accuracy requirements. Each extensometer comes with an inspection certificate traceable to NIST, spare parts kit, spare set of tool-steel knife edges, and a quality, foam lined, plastic storage case.
