User-Friendly Operation

Designed with simplicity and automation in mind, the machine enables straightforward testing in four main steps:

1. Specimen Placement

• Power on the machine

• Use the integrated centering apparatus to position and center the specimen accurately

2. Test Parameter Setup

• Input the required test parameters (e.g., pace rate)

• Adjustment is only needed when switching between different specimen types

3. Test Execution

• Press the START button on the control unit

• The machine performs a rapid approach until the specimen contacts the upper platen

• Once contact is detected, loading begins automatically at the specified pace rate

• Loading continue

• Test parameters and results are automatically saved for review and analysis

• Compatible with software tools for further processing and report generation
