Vector

May 2023

Vector is an extensometer, re-imagined.

Through the integration of automated and adaptive capabilities, combined with state-of-the-art hardware, Vector significantly reduces test throughput time and complexity whilst improving operator safety. Vector is simple enough to seamlessly integrate into large test labs using multiple test frames to break thousands of specimens a day, whilst flexible and powerful enough to meet the needs of in depth R&D style testing where it can replace multiple sensors with a single unit.

Delivered pre-configured with a large working volume, machine setup changes are eliminated when alternating between different specimens or test types.

Capable of meeting and exceeding the requirements of extensometer standards ISO9513 Class 0.5 and ASTM E83 – B1. Vector represents a significantly reduced capital investment compared to advanced extensometers, whilst also offering comparable lifetime cost to that of a single clip-on extensometer.
