This system has been created to be installed on spring testing machines. It allows the user to have the same results as new and more efficient instruments, starting from machines with an outdated detection system but a very sturdy mechanical structure. New linear potentiometers or optical scales and new load cells are set up. The new system is connected to a detection unit which can interface with a PC.

 
The system consists of:
 
• TC measuring software for compression and traction testing;
• Measuring optical scales or linear potentiometers for movement;
• New load cell;
• Digital control unit with microprocessor;
• USB security key;
• CD ROM with original software;
• PC on customer’s request.
