Tensile Force Gauge PCE-MMT E
Universal tensile force gauge / 2 digital Open-Collector-outputs / 
20 ... 5000 Hz adjustable measurement frequency / 
Optionally with force test beds PCE-TF 2 / PCE-TF 3 / PCE-TF 4 / PCE-TF 5 

The tensile force gauge PCE-MMT E can be applied in areas of production, quality control and material control. The tensile force gauge features an intelligent processor and works with a software system of the newest generation processing on real-time speed. Thus the force gauge for tensile and compressive forces can measure those tensile and compressive forces with its external sensors in order to display them on a 2.8" LCD display with the units N, kg and lb. The measuring frequency can be set between 50 and 2000 Hz. Due to the internal data storage the valued data can be saved in a *.csv- file compatible to Excel. The internal flash drive has a capacity of 128 kb, whilst a 2 GB data memory card is included in delivery. By means of the optionally purchasable software SoftPCE the measurement data can be transferred to a computer for further processing and archiving. The force gauge for tensile and compressive forces can be mounted by its two M6 bore holes on the top and backside. Apart from measuring tensile and compressive forces, the force gauge can also measure the torque. But the required external sensor must be purchased therefore separately. Those sensors can be purchased either with or without an TEDS module. In addition there can be a incremental displacement signal (5 V TTL) adapted. The force gauge for tensile and compressive forces can be also used in combination with the manual testbed PCE-TF2 / PCE-TF 4 or the motorized testbed PCE-TF3 / PCE-TF 5.

* What is TEDS?

TEDS is a Transducer Electronic Datasheet. It refers to an international sensor standard. Each TEDS measuring cell features a data chip integrated into a sensor or a socket. These contain basic information on the measuring cell. These can be e.g. serial numbers, measuring ranges or calibration data. If a TEDS measuring cell is connected to a device, the stored data can be seen via its menu navigation
