Precision Handwheel-driven MWD (high capacity)

A twin-column design for added stability and greater test accuracy

Operated via a handwheel the MWD enables precise positional control of the crosshead for applications up to 10kN, particularly those which require a load reading to be taken at an exact displacement (height scale required).

Combined with a Mecmesin loadcell and display or a digital force gauge, the MWD is a budget-priced solution to basic higher-rated tension and compression testing applications.

If consistent test speed and reproducibility are a priority, have a look at our Motorised Test Systems.

Key Features

• Excellent positional control through handwheel operation
• Compact design occupies minimal bench space
• Measures displacement through added digital height scale
• Test longer samples through the twin-column structure
• Portable, for use at different test locations
• Can be used in conjunction with Mecmesin's display unit or range of digital gauges

Optional extras

• Height scale, 0.01mm (0.0005") resolution
• Extended crosshead travel (subject to reduced load capacity)
• Extended columns (subject to reduced load capacity)
