DESCRIPTION
TA Q800 is a state-of-the-art, non-contact,
linear drive technology to provide precise control
of stress, and air bearings for low friction support.
Strain is measured using optical encoder technology
that provides unmatched sensitivity and resolution.
Ideal for stiff samples and especially composite materials.
