The "SVE 2" is a high-performance non-contact extensometer suitable for everyday materials such as rubber, soft plastics, elastomers, and other materials with significant elongation until fracture. It offers various models with different fields of view (FOV) suitable for applications at both room temperature and outside of room temperature. It can accommodate specimens with multiple gauge lengths and various elongations. It is easy to mount on test frames and allows for quick relocation to other testing machines within the laboratory. 【Features】 ■ One extensometer can be used with any testing machine ■ Affordable non-contact solution ■ Device developed from customer feedback ■ Non-contact video strain measurement for rubber and elastomers *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "2620 Series" is a precise and lightweight strain gauge that can be used for accurate direct measurement of strain and closed-loop control in various static material tests and high-frequency repetitive tests. It complies with a wide range of domestic and international standards, including tensile, compression, low and high cycle fatigue tests, creep tests, stress relaxation, and linear (ramp wave) tests. It can also be used immersed in various fluids (such as acetone, mineral oil, silicone oil, alcohol, and similar cooling/heating liquids), and can be quickly and easily calibrated even in this environment. 【Features】 ■ Simple lightweight design and robust structure ■ Wide operating temperature range, -80℃ to +200℃ ■ Selectable gauge length extender ■ Accurate linear output compatible with high frequencies *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
