Software control
Texture Labs texture analysis testing software runs on any Windows computer. The software takes full control of the test frame motor whilst simultaneously collecting data from the ILC loadcell and displacement encoder.
Start your chosen routine from a PC or console and Texture Labs automates the complete test procedure.
Easy to use
Design and configure step-by-step test routines to match your testing procedures. An intuitive interface makes it easy to create, customise and save tests.
Consistently apply tensile or compressive force to the specimen up to a preset limit or until it breaks, stretch or crush the specimen to a certain displacement or cycle it several times to measure its performance.
Console mode for operators
Dedicated mode for the production line environment - designed for routine testing with minimal training. Launch with one touch of a favourite test icon.
To keep things really simple and secure you can even control individual operator access to specific tests and software functions.
Realtime results
Measurement data is displayed live on a graph as the test is running so that the user can see exactly how the specimen is performing.
Data from the ILC loadcell and displacement encoder is collected by Texture Labs texture analysis software at an impressive 1,000 times per second (1 kHz).
Pass or fail indicator
A clear pass (green) or fail (red) indication leaves an operator in no doubt about the status of each specimen, based on your test standards.
Report and analyse
A powerful reporting module allows you to configure test reports to present data the way your customer wants to see it.
The library of preset calculations makes analysing the data simple.
Share your data
All the test data can be exported to Microsoft Excel or for a statistical process control (SPC) package.
You can install copies of Texture Labs texture analysis software on other computers to share your customised test routines and results data.
