DYNAMIC UNIAXIAL TESTING
ELECTROFORCE 3330
Moveable crosshead
Magnetic linear motor
Various types of grips
450 N submersible load cell
The ElectroForce 3330 system provides static to 100 Hzdynamic loading with an envelope of ±3 kN, allowingversatile performance for a variety of test applications such asdurability testing of orthopaedic implant devices and dynamiccharacterization of biological materials. Its high accuracydisplacement sensor provides accuracies in the range ofmicrons.
