Videoextensometer used for tensile tests.

RTSS System
With the Videoextensometer the longitudinal and transversal strain is measured during material tests (e.g. tension, compression tests).  Further analysis modules for the determination of crack length (e.g. long term tests) and crack areas (e.g. bondings) are available.

 

Applications:
The Videoextensometer RTSS is perfectly suited for the determination of material properties in tension tests. The specimen's deformation is measured contact less and e.g. Stress-strain curves, E-modulus and Poisson's ratio are determined.

Advantages of the RTSS videoextensometer

  • No mechanical influence of the specimen due to the contact less camera technique
  • The videoxtensometer can be used until specimen failure
  • Fully integrated into test machines
  • Easy operation and intuitive user interface
  • Large application fields on nearly all materials
  • Strains from 20µm/m up to more than 1000% can be measured
  • Measurement fields from a few mm to multiple m 
Options:
RTSS_HR: High resolutions videoextensometer for quasi static tensile tests.
Measurement precision for strain is 20µstrains (=20µm/m)
RTSS_HS: Fast videoextemsometer. Due to its high measurement rate the videoextensometer can be used also for dynamic applications (e.g. hydro pulser) and for the control of fast processes.
Multi-Camera-System: + Simultaneous measurement of different specimen sides.
+ Combination of a small and a large field of view --> High precision measurement of E-modulus and measurement of the complete Force-Strain-curve.

RTSS Version 4 released

  • The new kernel provides more flexibility and performance.
  • The user interface allows the free display of all measured variables.
  • Integration of DOLI controller interface


New Features

  • Stereo Setup: The cameras are at a defined distance, and each measure only a mark -> The highest accuracy strain for stiff materials
  • Localization: A user-defined number of line marking will be measured online.
