Brookfield Engineering introduces the new CT3 texture analyser, described as the most powerful, lowest cost, stand-alone texture analyser ever produced
This new generation instrument features not only the traditional compression mode, but now includes a brand new tension mode.
Now manufacturers can test their products and the packaging as well.
The large vertical work area of the CT3 is ideal for large sample placement.
This also allows for increased travel distance maximizing the functionality of the new tension mode.
The CT3 offers load cells in 100g, 1000g, 1500g, 4500g and 10kg.
The 10kg load limit more than doubles the limit of its predecessor, the LFRA texture analyser.
It also features a broader speed range for probe movement, a USB port for direct connection to a PC, and an optional temperature probe.
The CT3 texture analyser features seven test modes.
These report test modes include: normal test, hold time test, cycle count test, bloom test, TPA test, tension test and static load calibrator check.
Brookfield provides a complete line of fixtures for use with the CT3.
In addition, Brookfield will work with customers to develop custom equipment for their specific texture measurement applications.
