The LFPlus
universal testing machine is an affordable, easy to use solution
for material testing applications up to 1 kN (225 lbf) capacity. The
machine uses high accuracy interchangeable XLC Series load cells.
Tension and compression testing with cycling to load and extension
limits are standard features. The machine features an innovative design
that maximises working space.
Introducing a new generation single column high precision materials
testing machine, the LS1 is designed to measure forces up to 1kN
(225lbf) Ideal for routine quality control testing or complex
multi-stage tests, this versatile material tester can perform a wide
library of tests including tensile strength, compression, flexural,
peel, shear, static and kinetic coefficient of friction and many more
across many industries.
LS1 machine features include:
high mechanical stiffness for highest precision displacement measurement
a wide speed range 0.01-2032mm/min for faster testing and higher productivity
exceptional load accuracy – fewer loadcells required to cover the full load range saving time and cost
a variety of control options possible for your convenience: stand
alone operation via a control console, alternatively using a PC or
laptop and our acclaimed NEXYGENPlus analysis software
NEXYGENPlus software is Windows® 7 compatible featuring an
improved and intuitive User Configurable Test functionality
complementing the comprehensive test standards library
The system is capable
of storing up to 600 test results from a choice of 10 programmable test
set-ups. For enhanced performance, the TAPlus can be used with Lloyd Instruments NEXYGENPlus data analysis software
. The software contains an extensive library of pre-programmed texture
test set-ups based on international standards. Test information can
easily be exported to Microsoft® products such as Word, Excel® and
Outlook®.

It is with excitement that I let you know that Chatillon has
just released a brand new line of force gauges! These new force gauges offer
quite a few enhancements to the previous generation, including an industry
first - Wireless Bluetooth communications! This means that there are no more
wires to worry about, and you are allowed more freedom with placement of gauges
and pc's.
As you may know, C.S.C. carries a large stock of Chatillon force gauges. With
the new product line being released, we need to liquidate our inventory to make
room for the new gauges. In order to do this, we are offering a 15% discount on
all current inventory. Even with the discount, you can be assured that you will
still receive full ISO17025 Accredited Calibration, full manufacturers
warranty, and the industry leading support you expect from C.S.C. Force
Measurement. Please take a look at the Clearance Section to see our current inventory specials.
