Springtest 1-2-3 Spring Testers
 


Basic tester (manual version)
A very simple, economical system for checking compression springs. The measurement head gives the force applied, the displacement sensor shows the flexion or height measured under load.
The parallelism of the lower plate can be adjusted to ensure correct seating for the spring.

Precision tester (manual version)
A system specially designed for high precision measurements of compression. With its high reduction ratio, this manually operated test stand is well suited for the measurement of small springs with low force levels. The displacement sensor gives a measurement of the flexion or height measured under load with a resolution of 0.00002 in. The test stand is equipped with a set of adjustable limit stops. The measurement display shows the force and the displacement simultaneously and plots the graph curve for the spring. These data can be exported via the RS232 output of the display unit. The parallelism of the lower plate can be adjusted to ensure correct seating for the spring. An accessory kit can be used to make measurements on tension springs.

- CNR DUAL T (in tabletop casing) (capacities of 10 N, 25 N and 50 N available)
- incremental linear encoder linked to the CNR DUAL T with a SPIP connector
- Compression plate diameter 100mm (AC PL100)
- Self levelling compression plate (AC PAJ80)
- Hook (CNR CRC)

Automatic tester (motorized version)
With its CENTOR Dual force gauge; fixed plate and adjustable plate, this unit can be used to test high-capacity tension and compression springs. The command automatically determines the origin of the displacements and then stops the machine at a predetermined flexion value to measure the height under load. It is also possible to measure flexion, and cycles can be programmed. The instrument has an RS232 to store the results on a computer. Additional sensors are available to provide high levels of precision for springs with low force levels.


The pack includes:
