Advantest 9 Computerised Control Console

The Advantest 9 is ideal both for traditional tests, such as compression and flexure tests on concrete, cement, mortar, blocks etc. and cyclic tests for the determination of secant Elastic Modulus (E), and also for advance tests to determine the mechanical properties of materials.
For example to measure the ductility and fracture energy of concrete reinforced with fibres (FRC) and lined with polymers (FRP), or the toughness of sprayed concrete slabs (ShotCrete) under concentrated load tests
The Main Advantages
Performance: user defined test, which can be easily performed under load, specific load, and displacement and deformation control.
Flexibility: possibility to connect up to 4 different frames with load capacity from 15 up to 5000 kN easily selectable by the user friendly software.
Accuracy and Reliability: long life system primarily due to the advanced electronic, efficiency of closed loop system, P.I.D. control adapted to the test and very high resolution.
Software: satisfy all requirements concerning compression and flexural tests on building materials. Three user interfaces: the graphic display, the alphanumerical control keyboard and PC for remote control of cell functions.
