Description

Featuring a wide selection of load cell capacities, versatile control options and compatible accessories, the AGS-V Series delivers dependable testing of diverse material types.

Available in seven different models, the AGS-V Series supports load capacities from 1 N to 10 kN, making it ideal for delicate samples and high-force testing applications.
Expandable frame options are available to handle materials that undergo deformation, such as rubber and plastics.
Users can increase both the testing stroke and main unit height with +250 mm and +500 mm extensions, enabling reliable tests to failure on highly elastic or stretchable materials.

Key features include:
  • Wide test speed range of 0.0005 to 1500 mm/min, providing greater adaptability for various test conditions.
  • Crosshead return speed of 1650 mm/min – helps reduce test cycle times and boost lab productivity.
  • High-speed data sampling rate of 0.2 milliseconds – enables precise capturing of rapid or subtle changes in force during testing.
  • Test force accuracy down to 1/1000 of the load cell capacity, improving data reliability, particularly during the initial rise in test force. This precision reduces the need for frequent load cell changes, simplifying setup and saving time.
  • Compatibility with a comprehensive lineup of accessories, including pneumatic flat grips, a selection of extensometers and atmosphere test devices.

The AGS-V Series is powered by TRAPEZIUMX-V software, known for its intuitive interface, including a Method Wizard that guides users through test setup.

Additional software options include:
  • Single software for standard tensile, compression, bending and peeling tests
  • Cyclic software for durability testing involving repeated loading patterns
  • Control software for creating custom test operation sequences
  • Texture software for evaluating the properties of food and pharmaceutical products
  • Spring software for specialized testing of spring performance
