Among the new accessories, Admet now offers a long stroke extensometer for plastics and rubber testing which is compatible with all of its digital controllers and electromechanical testing machines
The E-900CT balanced extensometer features 900mm travel with adjustable gage lengths between 20mm and 80mm that accommodates specimen thicknesses of 0.2mm to 4.0mm with a resolution of 0.0254mm.
Admet is also offering a number of furnaces and environment chambers for use with its test frames.
The stainless steel-lined furnace F-200CT is compatible with Admet's Expert 26xx twin-screw electromechanical test frames and offers drying, baking and pre-heating of specimens up to 200C.
The 220Volt electric heater is accurate to +/-0.3C and includes a manual air recirculation control and minute/hour timer.
The unit is on rails so it can slide out of the way when not in use.
Admet is also offering two environmental chambers (one for use with its single-column UTMs and one for its dual-column machines).
Both feature a liquid nitrogen (LN2) injector and 220Volt heating elements with temperature regulation to within +/-0.1C.
Heated viewports are standard on both models.
The single-column chamber (F-2505T) can be used with Admet's Expert 560x and Expert 760x lines of UTMs.
Minimum inside dimensions are 550x140x140mm with a temperature range from -70C to 250C.
