Operation Controller
User-Friendly Interface
Equipped with a color liquid crystal touch panel that displays the most appropriate buttons and information in accordance with the situation. Various operations and information can be displayed, such as adjusting the distance between jigs before a test and checking measurement values during testing.
Machine Self-Diagnosis Function
Sensor amplifier calibration information, testing machine operation status, power supply voltage, communication status, etc., are constantly monitored. There is immediate notification in the event of a fault. Also, it is equipped with a function that checks the number of hours of instrument usage and the number of times the instrument has been used. When a prescribed value is reached, the operator is notified. This is useful for scheduling maintenance and contributes to greater uptime.
Selectable Displays
An easy-to-see format can be selected for the measurement value display details during a test. If measurement values are displayed over two lines, the measurement values can be checked visually, even from a distance.
Automation of the Test Force Electrical Calibration Function
Test force electrical calibration, which must be performed when starting the test machine, is performed automatically.
Stand-Alone Testing Function
Testing can be performed with the operational controller only, without using a computer.
-Tensile, compression, and bending test conditions can be configured directly from the touch panel.
-The measurement results are saved on a USB flash drive.
Note: Prepare the USB flash drive separately.
Voice Operation Is Supported
Voice notification is played before crosshead operation, preventing operator errors.
* Sound can be muted.
Operation Sound Can Be Selected in Accordance with the Environment
Autograph-specific operation sounds have been designed. You can choose between “pleasant sound for comfortable operation” and “sound that is easy to hear in noisy conditions.”
* Sound can be muted.
Cutting-Edge Specifications for a New Era of Testing Quality
Operation Controller
High-Speed Data Sampling: 5 kHz
The high-speed sampling function has been enhanced from 1 ms to 0.2 ms. Rapid or minute changes can now be recorded.
Wide Range of Testing Speeds and High-Speed Crosshead Return
The test speed range is 0.0005 to 1500 mm/min, so tests can be performed under more test conditions. Also, the crosshead return speed has been increased to 1650 mm/min, which contributes to reducing customers’ test takt time.
Test Force Accuracy Guaranteed Range: 1/1000
The test force accuracy guaranteed range has been enlarged to 1/1000, which widens the data confidence interval. The test force rise portion also can be analyzed with confidence. Tests that required replacing multiple load cells depending on the test force can now be performed with fewer load cells, freeing the operator from the difficult replacement operation.
Expandability to Enable Various Measurements
By adding an optional board, measurements can be made using the Shimadzu strain gauge type extensometer. Also, both analog and digital signals can be input, enabling various types of measurements.
Operator-Friendly Design with Enhanced Safety
Protection Cover
Protects Operators from Debris
The protection cover is provided as standard on the front of the test space. Manufactured from high-durability polycarbonate, it blocks ruptured sample fragments and protects operators.
Unintended Operation Prevented with an Interlock
With the interlock function, test and return operations cannot be performed if the protection cover is open, reducing the risk of accidents.
Raising/Lowering Cover with Free Stop Function
The raising/lowering cover has a free stop function that allows it to be stopped at the desired position.
Intelligent Crosshead
Prevents Jig Impacts
The intelligent crosshead always recognizes its current position. If jigs get too close to each other due to an operational error, an impact warning is issued, and the crosshead is s topped automatically.
Contact Detection and Instantaneous Emergency Stop
The machine status is diligently monitored even when the crosshead is moved with the protection cover open, such as when adjusting the position of test jigs or attaching samples. If the machine detects test force changes due to contact with jigs or hands, the crosshead performs an emergency stop.
Overload Detection Function
If the machine detects a test force exceeding the load cell capacity, the crosshead stops automatically. This reduces the risk of load cell damage from overloads during jog operation and during testing. (Note that the possibility of damage cannot be completely eliminated.)
Stroke Limit Switch
Press, Set the Position, Release
A stroke limit switch, which sets the limits of crosshead movement, prevents crosshead and jig impacts. A spring mechanism inside the switch fixes the position when it is released, thereby preventing incorrect settings due to operational errors, such as forgetting to fix it.
Applications
Options

The dedicated, multi-functional TRAPEZIUMX-V software is simple to use, and the results you want can be quickly derived.
Single Lite Software
This brings together all the necessary functions for tension, compression, and bending tests, and it is simple to use.
Single Software
This is used for common uniaxial tests. It can be used in tensile, compression, bending, and peeling tests.
Cycle Software
Tests can be performed with repeated ups and downs, such as durability tests.
Control Software
This is software for creating your own test machine operating patterns.

Powerful Accessories for Various Testing Requirements
Pneumatic Flat Grip
By opening and closing the grip face by pneumatic pressure, this grip can hold the test specimen with one touch. This maintains a stable gripping force, even with soft samples whose thickness at the grip varies during the test.
DSES-1000 Long-Travel Extensometer for Soft Samples
This is a long-travel extensometer that can measure displacement up to failure in tensile tests on soft materials such as rubber. The arms are clamped to the top and bottom gauge lines of the sample with one touch, and the top and bottom arms independently follow the extension of the sample.
TRViewX Non-Contact Video Extensometer
This test device cannot be used with protection covers. This is a high-precision non-contact extensometer that measures the strain of a sample from images taken. It is compatible with samples on which a contact-type extensometer cannot be attached, ranging from general materials to films.
SIE-560A/560SA Automatic Extensometer
This extensometer has various automatic functions, such as automatic detection of the grip position and moving the extension measurement arms between the positions. When the test is completed, it can automatically detach from the sample and return to the initial position. This allows the operator to operate the testing machine as semi-automatic, leaving everything to the testing machine after the sample is attached. The lineup also includes a high-precision type with measurement accuracy of ±1 μm.
SG Strain Gauge Type Extensometer
This is widely used as a manual extensometer. Various products are available in accordance with different requirements, such as compliance with ISO, JIS, and ASTM standards, distance between gauge lines, and testing in high-temperature environments.
Atmosphere Test Devices
This test device cannot be used with safety covers. Various test devices are available for tensile, compression, and bending tests in atmospheres other than room temperature, ranging from high temperatures to low temperatures.
Main Unit Extensions
Post Height Extension Specifications
The overall height of the testing machine main unit can be extended, as can the testing stroke. As a result, tests to failure can be performed on rubber and plastics, which undergo large amounts of deformation. The lineup includes +250 mm extension and +500 mm extension.
Load-Resistant Yoke Specifications
By strengthening the yoke at the top of the testing machine, tests can be performed in the space at the top of the testing machine. Tests can be easily performed with the operator standing. Also, because it is installed on the floor, it can be installed even if the height of the testing room is low.
