TMI Büchel X100 Model 1kN Single Column Tensile Tester

This universal tensile machine is a compact and lightweight Universal Testing Machine with full computer control and precision AC servo drive system. Ideally suited for high-volume, low force testing applications such as paper or packaging materials. Available in both standard and long-travel versions, making it suitable for testing high-elongation materials. Choose a single load cell or select multiple load cells to meet your testing needs. Load cell options of 1 kN (1,000N), 500N, 250N, 100N, 50N, 20N, 10N, 5N are available.

High precision and accuracy

Fully digital testing system with high precision control and accuracy, includes automated computer control of test methods giving simplicity of operation.

High-resolution load cells with accuracies better than +/-0.5% down to 1/1000th of the load cell capacity.

Automatic recognition of load cells and extensometers, with on-device storage of calibration parameters.  800% overload capability of load cells without damage.

Force Measurement

Universally Calibrated, better than Grade 0.5 EN 7500-1, DIN 51221, ASTM E-4, and AFNOR A03-501. Range 0.4% to 100% minimum. Automatic identification of load cell. Resolution 1 part in 500000. Electronic load cell overload protection.

Extension Measurement

Full frame length to a maximum resolution of 0.0001mm (selectable). Accuracy +/- 0.01mm. Absolute, relative, and auxiliary modes in mm, inch, and percent.

Load Frame

Rigid frame, using precision linear guidance system and rigid extruded support column. Frame stiffness 5kN/mm plus K factor facility built in. Re-circulating ball screw with bellows. Electronic limit trips, total travel trips, and customer programmable safety stops.

Software for the universal tensile machine

All models are supplied with the comprehensive winTest Analysis software package. With built-in test methods covering tensile, compression, flexural, peel, shear, tear, cyclic, creep, and multi-stage tests. It includes a wide range of industry standard test methods and the facility to create and store an unlimited number of test methods. There is automated storage of all test data and ease of export to other software packages such as Word, Excel, Access, and SPC systems for enhanced report generation.

Speed Control

Exceptional low speed performance with speeds down to 0.001mm/min. Drive system temperature and current protection.
