Used INSTRON 1000 #9058617 for sale

INSTRON 1000 is a laboratory equipment designed to measure the mechanical properties of materials using a variety of methods. It is comprised of an eccentric loading machine as well as contact, strain-gauge, or extensometer transducers for making the measurements. The machine can be used for tensile, compression, and transverse testing, as well as for impact testing. 1000 utilizes a loading frame made from a welded steel framework. It comes equipped with a rugged, eccentrically loaded, low-inertia linear actuator, and a 500 lb (227 kg) load cell at its base. The actuator is designed to provide accuracy in both the load and displacement readings. This loading system can be used to test samples up to 8" (203 mm) in length, and in both push-pull and torsional test configurations. INSTRON 1000 also has a built-in control system, which provides viewable LED displays as appropriate and enables users to record and store test results directly. For testing, 1000 employs an array of electrical transducers and measuring devices, such as extensometers, strain gauges, and contact transducers. The extensometers measure the elongation of the test sample under load, allowing for the determination of stress and strain for the sample. The strain gauges measure the displacement of the sample, and the contact transducers measure force, load, and pressure. INSTRON 1000 can also be equipped with various accessories to suit various test objectives. These include upper and lower platen grips for fixtureing the sample for testing, and an extensometer release device for releasing the sample at the completion of the test cycle. It can also be outfitted with a go-no-go gauge for comparing the test sample to pre-set standards, as well as force and tension displays, cabling, and video systems. Overall, 1000 is a reliable and accurate laboratory equipment designed to allow detailed and precise testing of mechanical properties of materials. With its modular design and ability of being equipped with a variety of transducers and accessories, it is an ideal solution for a range of measurement applications.
