Dual Column Low Force Test System
The Dual Column Low Force Test System is a high-precision universal testing solution designed to handle low-to-medium load applications. Built with a rigid dual-column frame, this tabletop system is engineered for demanding tensile, compression, flexural, and cyclic testing across a wide range of soft and semi-rigid materials.
It combines servo-controlled motion, fine resolution measurement, and versatile software integration to ensure repeatable, accurate testing, whether in research labs, quality control environments, or educational setups. The dual-column design improves alignment, stability, and test space flexibility for varied sample sizes and geometries.
