A sixteen channel instrument that connects to industry standard strain gauges to give direct readings of strain. Ideal for use with TecQuipment's Strain Gauge Kit (E19).

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.

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.

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

A kit comprising a PVC carrying case containing a selection of resistance strain gauges together with all the necessary accessories and consumable materials associated with their application.

A bench mounting apparatus to allow the stresses and strains of a pressurised thin walled cylinder to be investigated and analysed.

A self-contained bench mounting experimental apparatus to enable students to investigate the effect of pressure on the surface profile of a diaphragm and also the distribution of circumferential and radial strains.

Bench mounted bending system to test tension, torsion and bending to illustrate how resistance strain gauges work and methods of measuring strains in different structures. Can be used to demonstrate Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.

A self-contained bench mounting experimental apparatus to enable students to investigate the distribution of radial and hoop stresses and strains throughout the wall of a thick cylinder and to compare the practical results with those predicted by theory.
