CS2+225 – Up to 1 kN
The CS2Plus digital force testers from Chatillon are revolutionary systems optimized for production testing applications, including medical devices, plastics, packaging, textiles, rubber and electronics.
CS2Plus: The Next Generation in Digital Force Testers
The Lloyd Instruments 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.
Optimized for Efficiency and Ease of Use:
The CS2Plus is a high-precision, digital force testing machine designed to streamline testing workflows in production and laboratory environments. Suitable for testing applications up to 5 kN (1100 lbf), it excels in material testing across various industries, including:
• Plastics
• Rubber
• Packaging
• Pharmaceuticals
• Cosmetics
• Electronics
• Wood
Intuitive Operation and User-Friendly Design:
The CS2Plus features a 2-in-1 touch screen console with a 13” display, specifically designed for user-friendliness and ease of use in production environments. The high-resolution, color touchscreen provides both graphical and tabular representations of test results. The intuitive interface simplifies test setup, data analysis, and report generation, regardless of operator experience level. With just a few touches, users can configure tests, initiate test runs, and generate comprehensive reports.
Versatile Testing Capabilities:
The CS2Plus accommodates a wide range of testing requirements, including
• Tensile testing (pull)
• Compression testing (push)
• Shear testing
• Flexural testing
• Advanced multi-stage testing
The system allows for programming of various testing parameters, including:
• Limit testing (load, distance, and time)
• Break testing
• Cyclic and loop testing
• Multi-stage/user-defined testing
• Spring rate calculation
• Height measurement
Available Models and Specifications:
The CS2Plus comes in two models, catering to different force capacities:
• CS2Plus-1kN (225 lbf): Ideal for testing applications up to 1 kN, featuring a spacious work area with an 180 mm throat depth and 500 mm crosshead travel.
• CS2Plus-5kN (1124 lbf): Designed for testing applications up to 5 kN, featuring a 150 mm throat depth and 800 mm crosshead travel.
Both models boast exceptional speed accuracy exceeding 1%.
Standalone Operation:
The CS2Plus eliminates the need for a separate personal computer, proprietary software, or programming knowledge. The intuitive touch screen interface provides a complete testing solution within a single, self-contained unit.
Enhanced Data Management and Connectivity:
The CS2Plus offers robust data management features, including:
• Export of results and statistics in CSV and PDF formats
• Automatic export of results via RS232 interface after each test
• 100 kHz data sampling rate for high-resolution data acquisition
