A simple solution for very basic tension and compression tests
The ValuTest-D manual test stand combines with either a Mecmesin Basic Force Gauge (BFG) or Compact Force Gauge+ (CFG+) to provide an elementary option for very basic tension and compression tests.
Easy-to-use, the ValuTest-D is operated by a handwheel, which gives basic positional control over the crosshead, enabling forces up to 1000 newtons to be applied.
If accuracy is a priority, have a look at the MDD manual test stand.
