Materials Testing and Properties
Basic to Advanced Materials Testing Equipment for Teaching
The materials testing and properties products offer a wide range of teaching equipment to demonstrate key materials properties; they cover Hooke's Law and Young's modulus associated with elastic properties, and stress/strain analysis. For more advanced learning, experiments available progress to hardness testing, complex analysis of stress and strain, testing specimens to destruction and various apparatus for learning about material fatigue.

The range also extends into the area of structures and structural elements, providing supplementary products to our complete modular Structures range.

DefleX® Speckling Kit
A comprehensive set of tools and ink to easily apply an effective speckle pattern to a range of surfaces for use with the DefleX® DIC systems.

DefleX® Starter Kit
A simple system for introducing students to the concept of digital image correlation (DIC)

DefleX®-2D
An entry-level digital image correlation (DIC) system to teach students how to measure and visualise surface deformations, strains and displacements in materials and shapes.
The DefleX®-2D edition offers a student-friendly solution for visualising optical deformation measurements on various object sizes. It is equipped with camera measurement and image processing software for analysing motions, displacements and strains. It can measure visible features on objects and material surfaces like screws, joints, edges, grooves and composite structures. This is accomplished with the aid of a speckled pattern applied to the relevant parts of the target surface area. Instructions for applying the pattern are given in the user guide.

DefleX®-3D
From theory to reality - Seeing in microscopic detail
Combining theory, hands-on experimentation, visual learning, and technology evolution, DefleX®-3D is our teaching system helping students learn about 3D digital image correlation (DIC) that measures and visualises full-field surface deformations, strains and displacements.
Designed for teaching, it enables students to explore material behaviour, experimental mechanics, and design validation with real-world data. Simple to calibrate and quick to set up, using two digital cameras and image analysis software, DefleX®-3D captures surface changes in real-time or playback, enabling footage manipulation and data analysis whenever, wherever.

BEAM APPARATUS

A bench top frame with load cells and cantilevers for the study of deflection and forces on different types of beams for a wide range of supports and loads; also demonstrates Young's modulus.

UNIVERSAL TESTING MACHINE

A versatile bench-mounted machine for compressive and tensile tests on different materials and structures.
