Used INSTRON 4422 #293663086 for sale

INSTRON 4422 is a versatile and precise laboratory device used for testing and characterization of mechanical properties of materials such as metals, plastics, and composites. It is composed of a high stiffness frame, a controller module, a power console, and a transducer equipment. The frame acts as a mechanical support for the system's base and can be enhanced through the addition of an optional frame extension and clamping rings. The controller node contains a Windows-based microprocessor that provides the control functions for the unit, allowing the user to quickly and accurately measure the material's tension, compression, bending, and shear load during testing. The power console is connected to the controller and contains a set of instrumentation amplifiers, analog-to-digital converters, DC power supplies, and a voltage/current stabilizer, allowing for accurate and reliable measurements. Finally, the transducer machine includes the actuator, load cell, and extensometer, each of which has its own microcontroller, which allows for measurements of the materials' specific strength, stiffness, and elongation. 4422 can categorize materials such as polymers, metals, elastomers, and composites, and provides precise results, making it an ideal laboratory device for a wide range of materials testing.
