MT Series

MT Series
Modular Mechanical Test Stands

The MT Series Mechanical test stands are an easy-to-use solution for force measurement applications up to 500 lbf (2.2 kN) capacities. Two capacities are available: 150 lbf (660 N) and 500 lbf (2.2 kN). Either capacity test stand can be equipped with a quick-action lever or precision hand-wheel for controlling crosshead speed and travel. The MT test stand can be bench mounted, wall mounted or positioned horizontally. Vertical working lengths are available from 750mm (29 inch), 1000mm (39 inch) and 1500mm (60 inch). Standard stroke is 6 inches (150mm). Larger stroke is available as a special by extending the length of the precision rack.

The MT Series features an innovative design that maximises working space and that simplifies operation and maintenance. The single column design with 150mm (6 in) throat is ideal for large specimens. The removal platen is designed to accommodate metric and imperial threaded fixtures. Special gauge adapter kits simplify gauge alignment. Options include a column ruler, graduated in millimetres and inches. Analog travel indicators are also optionally available. Travel resolution may be displayed up to 0.01mm (0.0005in).
