Non-Contacting Video Extensometer
AVE3
-
The AVE3 is Instron’s most advanced extensometer, engineered for high-precision, non-contact strain measurement across a wide range of mechanical tests—including tension, compression, and flexure. Its adaptable design accommodates various specimen types, sizes, and elongation ranges, making it ideal for everything from delicate films to robust metals. By eliminating the need for clip-on devices, the AVE3 streamlines setup and ensures uninterrupted data collection through specimen failure, even in high-energy break scenarios, such as composites. Compatible with environmental chambers and fluid baths, it supports non-ambient testing with ease. With compliance to ISO 9513 and ASTM E83 and a fast 500 Hz data rate, the AVE3 delivers reliable performance for demanding testing standards.

High Temperature, Low Strain, Extended Performance Capacitive Extensometers
Model 7650A
-
Jinan Testing Equipment IE Corporation
Model 7650A extensometers measure strains with extremely high precision due to their design features and low strain range. All models are capable of tension and compression strain measurement, and may be used for fatigue testing under fully reversed load and strain conditions at frequencies up to 10 Hz.All 7650A models mount rigidly on the load frame and incorporate slide mounting to bring the extensometer into contact with the specimen. The gauge length is set automatically before mounting on the test specimen, which allows for hot mounting after thermal equilibrium has been reached.These units are specifically designed to provide high accuracy, high resolution measurements and perform high temperature fatigue testing at the highest possible frequencies. They incorporate capacitive sensors for low operating force and include electronics with programmable filtering and multi-point linearization for improved performance and accuracy. The overall design minimizes, and in many cases virtually eliminates, any influence from common lab environment vibrations.These water-cooled extensometers are equipped with high purity alumina rods for specimen contact when testing to 1200℃ (2200°F). Silicon carbide rods are used for the 1600℃ (2900°F) high temperature option.The Model 7650A is often customized for specific test needs. Contact Epsilon for a configuration that matches your requirement.

Thin Film Analyser
TFA
-
The TFA instrument has be designed to monitor dissolution rates with a minimal volume of developer, typically ≤ 1 ml. The design uses surface tension to hold the developer in a small gap between the sample and the detector head. The instrument allows multiple measurements on the same sample. Thickness measurement can be made in the same geometry as dissolution measurements.

Automotive Tester
-
An automotive tester can be used to inspect one or more aspects of an automobile. For example, a borescope automotive tester is an automotive inspection camera used by auto body mechanics to see inside car, truck and other vehicle engines before removing any engine parts. Other kinds of automotive tester devices are used to adjust belt tension, test the electronic ignition starter, search for air conditioning leaks, measure the force required to press a brake pedal, determine the antifreeze concentration, or check the paint thickness over collision repairs.PCE Instruments (PCE) offers a wide variety of automotive tester products. These diagnostic support tools help professional automobile mechanics identify a number of vehicle repair needs. PCE's automotive tester products can aid in the diagnosis of many different mechanical and electrical system issues, including but not limited to locating the cause of an engine misfire, testing fuel injector resistance, pinpointing an engine coolant leak, or detecting car cylinder head problems. It's no wonder so many auto repair technicians choose to stock theirs shops and garages with PCE automotive tester products.
