Instrument characteristics:
- Cutting-edge Control System: Boasting ultra-high operational
stability, this system streamlines the entire workflow of equipment
installation, test execution, and data analysis, significantly
reducing operational complexity for users.
- User-centric Software Control Architecture: The integrated
touchscreen interface enables real-time visualization of
temperature and displacement parameters. It features centralized
data governance, one-click test report generation and printing, and
seamless PC connectivity for extended data processing and storage.
- Four-tiered Safety Protection Mechanisms: Equipped with integrated
software and hardware safeguards, including a mechanical
over-temperature limit switch, software-based temperature
upper-limit interlock, auto-shutdown function upon test completion,
and administrator-level operation authorization. These measures
work in tandem to ensure the safe and stable operation of the
testing process.
- High-precision Measurement & Control System: Adopting
high-performance temperature sensors and advanced capacitive
grating gauges, the system accurately captures minimal deformations
of test samples. It utilizes sophisticated PID control algorithms
and full optoelectronic isolation phase modulation modules for
heating regulation, ensuring the heating rate deviation is kept
below 0.5℃.
- Electric Sample Stage Lifting Function: The machine is configured
with an electric lifting mechanism for the sample rack, eliminating
potential hidden damage to the rack and samples that may be caused
by manual lifting operations.
