MTS Systems
Acumen® Electrodynamic Test Systems
With force capacities up to 12kN or down to milli-Newtons, these clean and quiet systems can extend energy-efficient electrodynamic testing to many applications.
MTS Systems
Planar Biaxial Test System
Critical for characterizing complex design structures, components, and orthotropic and anisotropic lightweighting materials, these systems are used to perform mechanical tests for the transportation, power generation and civil engineering industries.
Key Features & Benefits
- Accurate / Repeatable Results — High lateral stiffness provides accurate test results
- Innovative Technology — Adjustable alignment apparatus in the load path removes specimen-bending strains
- Precise — Hydrostatic actuator bearings reduce friction for precise actuator positioning within the cylinder
- Advanced Safety Features — Optional over-travel protection in X, Y, Z planes
