ZWICK RO

Zwick’s latest strain measurement system, laserXtens, has successfully been used for applications in temperature chambers where materials are typically exposed to temperatures from -70 to +250°C whilst being subjected to tensile or compressive loads.

Zwick’s latest strain measurement system, laserXtens, has successfully been used for applications in temperature chambers where materials are typically exposed to temperatures from -70

to +250°C whilst being subjected to tensile or compressive loads. laserXtens measures bi-axial strain without any specimen contact. Part of the specimen surface is illuminated using the

principle of laser speckle interferometry. Which is tracked by two digital cameras. Highly advanced real-time software algorithms convert this data directly into strain.
