MFL 500-C   Fully automated extensometer

The extensometer MFL 500-C is the successor model to the MFL 500-B (in the following named MFL)and it is suitable for almost all samples of an initial gauge length from 10 mm. Its low clamping forces combined with high measurement accuracy makes it highly suitable even for small, notch sensitive test samples. The MFL can be connected to partly or fully automatic testing machines with hydraulic grips. The strain can be measured from the elastic range to fracture for almost all types of samples. When used in combination with the MFQ-A or MFQ-B2, the MFL is highly suitable for testing the deep‑drawing properties (vertical anisotropy r) of thin sheets.
