TSFM500-DC*

Motorized test stand, vertical
TSFM500H-DC*

Motorized test stand, horizontal
The TSFM500-DC is an advanced motorized test stand offering all the mechanical specifications of the TSFM500. The test stand is designed for compression and tension testing of springs, packaging, metals, fabrics, and other items requiring up to 500 lbF of force. Generous clearance and throat depth accommodate a broad range of sample shapes and sizes. The TSFM500-DC's durable and rigid column minimizes bend, making it particularly well suited for precision spring testing. Other features include a manual fine adjustment knob and a stepper motor that prevents speed variation with load, making testing precise and repeatable.

The TSFM500-DC's controller adds a significant amount of sophistication, including an extended speed range, PC control capability, programmable cycling, auto return, overload protection, and other features.

Digital travel display

Limit switch kit
OPTIONAL HARDWARE FEATURES:
  • Digital travel display
    • 6" [150 mm] travel, 0.0005" [0.01 mm] resolution, 0.001" [0.03 mm] accuracy, SPC output for automated data collection. For output of travel data to a PC, the following items are required: 09-1066 cable and MRS100A communication adapter.
  • Multi-function cable, BG gage to controller
    • Connects a Series BG force gage to the controller. This single cable is used to transmit set points, overload signals, and force data.
  • Serial cable, controller to PC
    • Bi-directional communication with a PC for computer control. Also sends force data from the controller to a PC.
  • Serial cable, gage to PC
    • Connects a Series BG force gage with a PC. Bypasses the controller.
CONTROLLER FEATURES
  • Computer Control
    • An RS-232 port is provided to interface with a PC. The TSFM500-DC accepts a number of commands pertaining to test stand motion and force gage functions*. The following additional items are required for PC control:
      • Series BG or CG force gage
      • 09-1056 serial cable
      • 09-1143 multi-function cable
  • Overload Protection
    • Protects a force gage against overload (requires a Series BG or CG force gage and 09-1143 multi-function cable). The user programs the desired percentage of full scale of the gage. Adjustable analog ouput voltage setting allows the test stand to interface with virtually any force gage with analog output.
  • Auto-return
    • The crosshead moves to a limit switch or force set point (requires a Series BG or CG force gage), stops, and reverses direction at maximum speed to the other limit switch or set point.
  • Cycling / Dwell Time
    • The crosshead moves up and down between limit switches or force set points (requires a Series BG or CG force gage). Configurable up to 99,999 cycles. Dwell time allows the operator to program the amount of time, up to 9,999.9 seconds, in 0.1 second intervals, for which the crosshead pauses at limits.
  • Programmable UP / DOWN Button Functions
    • UP and DOWN button operation can be configured in three user-configurable modes: Maintained: a short push produces continuous motion until STOP is pressed; Momentary: crosshead moves only while the button is pressed; Auto: short push produces maintained motion, while holding down the button will produce momentary motion.
  • Independent Up and Down Speeds
    • Programmable independent speeds for up and down directions
  • Selectable Speed Units of Measurement (in/min & mm/min)
  • Password Protection
    • Prevents unauthorized changes to test parameters.
* Contains no integrated travel measurement. Travel information available only through the external TSF001 digital travel display, requiring an additional serial port on the PC. For an integrated solution with full PC control, including travel distnace, see test stand model ESM301.
