Combining the CS 3000 Compression set testing tools with the TGD 3000 thickness gauge and AO 3000 ageing oven creates a full testing set according to ISO815, DIN 53517, ASTM D 395,
The gauge is manufactured to close tolerances and can be used as a quality control instrument. It is crucial that any thickness gauge applies a controlled pressure (kPa) to the material whose thickness is being measured.
The TGD 3000 uses a deadweight system removing the uncertainty of other mechanical devices. This system ensures that the thickness is being measured under the same controlled conditions for each sample.
To measure the thickness of any sample, lift the deadweight by pressing the cable release or optionally lever and insert the material between the anvil and the presser foot. The deadweight is lowered automatically be releasing the button and the thickness reading can be obtained.
Precise measurements are guaranteed by the absolute measuring system without the need
for referencing. Optional gauge blocks are available for verification and calibration.
· - Various presser foot designs and tips (4, 4.3, 6, 10, 50.5mm, …)
· - Additional dead load weights according to various standards
· - Manual lifting lever
· - Interface kit and software
· - constant force enables repeatable readings
