Overview
The MK-Y0 is a high-precision electronic extensometer that measures specimen deformation during mechanical testing. A double-bending structure grips the specimen firmly for rigid mounting, and because a sensor forms the deformation-measuring element with a separate data-acquisition stage, recorded strains are both accurate and repeatable. A built-in creep verification function checks sensor behaviour over time.
Key Features
- Double-bending structure for rigid mounting
- Sensor-based deformation measurement with data acquisition
- High accuracy and precision
- Built-in sensor creep verification
- High combined accuracy and excellent long-term stability
- Compact design for straightforward integration
Applications
Laboratory and production materials testing where elongation or deformation must be captured precisely, including strength and creep verification of sensors and specimens.
