DefleX®-2D

Entry-level DIC System for Education, Making Materials Come Alive in the lab

DefleX®-2D is an entry-level, 2D digital image correlation (DIC) system, designed to help students visualise and understand how materials and structures behave under load. The camera and software kit tracks how surfaces stretch, bend and move – turning invisible stresses into clear, visual colour maps of strain and displacement in real time.

Ideal for material science, structures and mechanical engineering courses and labs, this compact, fully integrated teaching tool makes complex concepts easy to see and explore. DefleX®-2D provides a powerful yet simple way to visualise and analyse strains and deformations meaning students can directly compare experimental data with theoretical predictions or computer simulations, supporting a deeper blended learning experience.

DefleX®-2D

Complete ready-to-use teaching system with DefleX® camera and software for teaching students the principles of digital image correlation (DIC)
Integrated 6.3 MPx DAHENG camera with LED lighting
Non-Contact: no sensors fixed on specimen, no contact between the camera and the object/surface
Fast Setup: Less lab prep, more experiment time, easy to add into an existing lab session
Used alongside other TecQuipment products for extended learning potential
Makes invisible stresses visible: enhancing student experiences and engagement
Visual Learning: Students instantly see how beams bend, bridges flex, or materials stretch
Bridges theory and practice: links FEA/CAD with real-world results
Ideal for labs in Materials Science (tensile testing, creep, elasticity), Structures (beam deflection, arches, frames, bridges) and Mechanical Engineering (vibrations, torsion, bending)
