Desktop force/displacement testers record both force and displacement. Programming is facilitated by the unique program dial using plain language menu screens.
- Program speed for test and return speeds, high/low setpoints, force holding duration, number of cycles and the following functions
- Stop at set force, hold for set duration, capture both force and displacement values and return to start position
- Maintain force between high/low setpoints, hold for set duration, capture force and displacement values, return and repeat cycle
- Automatically start measuring displacement at a pre-programmed force value

Maintain Force Between High/Low Setpoints
Initial cross head speed is controlled by the start speed setting. Force control activates when applied force exceeds the low setpoint (and below the high setpoint) on the ZT series force gauge. The cross head maintains force between the low and high setpoint for the specified hold time,and then returns to the start position.
Increase Force to High Setpoint and Stop
Initial cross head speed is controlled by the start speed setting. When the applied force reaches the low set point of the ZT series force gauge, the test stand engages the measuring speed setting. The gauge stops when the applied force reaches the high set point on the ZT series force gauge. Ideal for non-destructive or creep testing. The cycle is repeated until the counter limit is reached.
