Extensometers



To precisely determine and evaluate the mechanical properties of a material, a test system requires the ability to measure values such as load force, strain, crack displacement and propagation, and needs to control with precision, the speed this parameters change.

Many variables, like load, can be measured from the load frame, while other variables, like strain, and crack length, are determined with higher accuracy using instruments on direct contact to the sample, or devices that do not touch the specimen.

MTS Systems Corporation has developed the widest line of extensometers and for the most unusual purposes that can be offered on the market.


Using patented systems to ensure accurate measurements, and control under static and dynamic conditions. MTS extensometers are designed to complement MTS equipment, or as generic devices that enhance other test systems.
