Description

CS2Plus: The Next Generation in Digital Force Testers. The Chatillon CS2Plus builds upon the success of the popular CS2 digital force testing machine, offering enhanced capabilities and improved performance for a wider range of production testing applications.

The Chatillon® CS2Plus digital force testers are revolutionary systems optimized for production testing applications, including medical devices, plastics, packaging, textiles, rubber and electronics to name a few. No personal computer is required; no proprietary software is required; no knowledge of programming languages is required. This easy, flexible and affordable Tester uses a 2 in 1 Laptop Console in both Production and Laboratory environments.

Two options are available from Chatillon. Both the CS2Plus-225 and CS2Plus-1100 provide an easy-to-use, intuitive and straight-forward method for tensile, compression, sheer, flexural, peel, or advanced multi-stage testing that conform to ISO or ASTM testing procedures. With the CSPlus Series you can perform:

• Limit testing to load, displacement, height or time
• Break testing—sharp or percentage
• Multi-stage, cyclic tests and height measurements
• Peel testing
• Spring Testing
• Capture 2nd Peak
• RS-232 Auto Result Export

When repetitive testing and exporting of results is important, and you need a reliable chatillon cs2+ digital force tester, but you don’t need advanced materials test functionality, the CS2Plus is an excellent choice

Features

A 2-in-1 Laptop Console

With built-in Flexibility for Production and Lab Environments, The CS2Plus uses a 2-in-1 Laptop Console with an 11 inch touch screen for easy and continuous operation in a production environment. The touch screen is also easy to operate, making it the perfect interface for users regardless of their skill level. A few touches are all it takes to setup a test, select the test runs and export reports. The Laptop Console may also be unfolded and setup using the keyboard as a laptop beside the CS2Plus.

With the CS2Plus you can:

• Define your favorite, frequently-used tests for immediate access and insert a sample picture as an Icon for unambiguous test selection.
• Switch seamlessly during test batch execution between individual test graphs, batch results and statistics.
• Print and export data directly from the screen or use automatic data archiving.

Limit and Break Testing

• Setup a test based on a load, displacement, height, or time limit in both tensile and compression directions. Similarly, a break or rupture can be defined as a sharp break or percentage drop from the peak load measured. As an added feature, a quick test button (compression or tension) allows the user to define and execute a test with only a few clicks, reducing setup time for trial and error testing.

Multi-Stage & Cycle Testing

• The multi-stage setup allows users to configure virtually any type of test setup imaginable. Each part of a test is defined as a “stage”. Each stage can be set up with its own independent load or displacement characteristic and speed. The touch screen interface with stage specific icons provides an excellent overview and makes it easy to add, edit or delete a stage, especially when using a digital force tester. Multi-stage testing can be used for cycle, hold, insertion/extraction, snap-on/off, switch toggle, or other sophisticated test methods. Users have total freedom to create the test movement required, using their sample without the need for expensive 3rd-party software applications or validation requirements

Height Mode

• The CS2Plus includes a height mode of operation that allows the user to perform preconditioning and then measure height at specific loads. The system has an automatic datum routine that defines the reference point for height measurements. An Absolute Distance Feature allows driving to a specific distance in reference to zero

Peel Testing

• Determine the maximum and average peeling force of various materials between two points that you define in the test program setup

Security

• Two levels of user access; supervisor and operator.Both can be password protected

Large, flexible work area

• Up to 180 mm throat depth for large specimen and a wide range of grips and fixtures available
