Designed primarily for medium capacity (225 Nm - 5,650 Nm)
torsion testing of materials and components, the MT torsion systems offer accurate, multi-turn capability, and high-rotational stiffness. The system torque cell is attached to a movable crosshead, which can be positioned at any location along the linear slide. Closed-loop servo-control of the electromechanical drive is provided by Instron's
I-Series Control Electronics and
Partner™ Torsion Software.
