Imetrum’s Video Extensometers save you time and money when testing and qualifying materials. They offer traceable, best in class resolution, with proven Video GaugeTM technology delivering performance way beyond the alternatives. Imetrum systems meet the most demanding requirements for strain, elongation and modulus measurements in tensile, compression, flex, shear and peel tests. Imetrum’s Video Extensometers can deliver resolutions to better than 3 microstrain / 10 nanometres. They also calibrate to unparalleled accuracies, with ISO9513 class 0.5/ASTM E83 B-1 possible, even at low strains and gauge lengths.
Choose the right system for you – either UVX (ideal for all standards based material testing, high throughput test facilities and busy labs), or UVX Flexi (enhanced user flexibility for those performing complex custom testing).
Imetrum’s extensometers are offered with a range of modules that enable gauge lengths from <1 mm to >1 m and strain ranges from <100 microstrain to >1000 % strain. Extensometer modules come in two variants:
The system controller runs our Video GaugeTM software, using top of the range processors and hardware. It allows up to four extensometer modules to be connected and operated simultaneously. It can be operated either independently or from an existing computer, such as the PC that controls your test frame.
Imetrum’s video extensometers are ordered either as ‘Routine Testing’ or ‘Advanced Testing’ specification, with available measurements including: Strain; Extension; Gauge Length; Dual-Average Strain; Poisson’s Ratio; Rotation; True and Engineering Shear Strain; Position and Distance. A full-field Digital Image Correlation option, and a Crack Length Gauge also available. All software options allow simple calibration to engineering units (e.g. mm) and support live measurements, recording of a video archive, a review mode for re-playing tests. Post-process licences are also available, to allow re-analysis of recorded data away from the test frame.
The optional signal interface unit allows full integration with your test frame, enabling live data exchange between the video extensometer and the test frame in both directions:
Other Imetrum systems include the Precision Displacement Tracker and the Dynamic Monitoring Stations
