The model FH12-37 is a heavy duty, rock solid C-frame with supreme rigidity. It is a closed loop system based on a load cell with Rockwell, Vickers, Knoop, Brinell, Ball indentation, HVT and HBT scales as part of the testing capabilities.

The test force ranges from 5-3000kgf and test cycles can be automatic or manual. With motorized Z-axis, descending test head capable of workpiece detection and motorized six-position turret, it is one of the most loaded technological hardness testers. It also has the added advantage of a 15in industrial touchscreen and PC-based Horizon software.

The test force ranges from 200-250kgf and test cycles can be automatic or manual. With motorized eight-position turret and descending test head capable of workpiece detection, it is one of the most loaded technological hardness testers. It also has the added advantage of a 15in industrial touchscreen and PC-based Horizon software.

The MP1200 is available in two distinct versions: the manual MP1200 and the motorized MP1200M. The manual MP1200 comes with everything you need - except weights and laboratory balance - to perform an ASTM D1238 Procedure A (manual cut) gravimetric melt flow rate (MFR). Test loads are applied manually.

The MP1200 can be upgraded with optional features, including ISO 1133 tools and an encoder-based programmable piston displacement transducer (PPDT), for testing according to Procedures B & C (ASTM D1238) or for volume measurement tests (melt volume rate or MVR) and melt density calculations.

Also available as options are Tinius Olsen’s manual and automatic specimen cutting tool attachments, which can be used with some materials to reduce the human involvement with the machine during the test and increase accuracy and repeatability of test results.

With the latest generation of hardness instruments we offer improvements over nearly every conventional method. Current designs are focused on eliminating user influence, efficiency and ease of use.

Tinius Olsen has many types of hardness testers available that can rapidly and accurately determine the hardness value of a wide variety of materials including metals, plastics, large parts and small precision parts.

Whether you need bench-mounted testers, large-scale floor-mounted testers or dedicated testers that are integrated into your production lines, we can help you with your application.

The VEM 300 series is directly compatible with all Tinius Olsen testing machine frames, single, twin and four-column machines. Camera staging options are available, including a unit that allows for fine X, Y and Z camera positioning and adjustment for optimum measuring performance. The 300 series can be mounted at the front or rear of most testing machines or free-standing on a tripod.

There are more than 70 lens types to choose from to suit specific camera lens performance, for example for data capture speed, field of view in which the event will occur, resolution and accuracy.

Extensometers measure strain, the change in length of a specimen divided by the original length (gage length) of the specimen, by means of knife edges that contact the sample. This series of extensometers comprises strain gage devices.

The models in this series of extensometer can be used to measure either longitudinal or transverse strain, or can be used in combination for determining ‘r�value and Poisson’s ratio.

Tinius Olsen’s Epsilon ONE high-precision optical extensometers measure axial strain with industry-leading resolution, accuracy and speed.

Innovative Instant Reset, Always On and Laser Alignment features maximize performance and increase testing throughput.

Tinius Olsen Epsilon ONE optical non-contact extensometers perform high-accuracy, high-resolution, non-contacting axial strain and displacement measurement. These extensometers are suitable for testing high-modulus materials such as metals and composites, high-elongation materials, thin or delicate specimens, cyclic fatigue, strain controlled testing, deflectometer applications, and measuring crack opening displacements. Strain or extension is measured and output in real time.

Epsilon ONE’s high resolution and ISO 0,5 / ASTM B-1 accuracy classes make it suitable for non-contact measurement of a wide range of strain values, from very small strains required to measure modulus of metals, composites, ceramics and CMCs through elastomers and everything in between.
