What is the maximum testing capacity of the RS-8000A?
The RS-8000A series is available in 100 kN, 200 kN and 300 kN configurations, with a maximum capacity of 300 kN.
Can the RS-8000A perform tensile, compression and bending tests?
Yes. These applications are supported when the machine is equipped with the appropriate grips and fixtures.
Can a 300 kN machine be used for lower-force tests?
Lower-force testing depends on the selected load cell and verified measuring range. Machine capacity alone does not determine measurement performance.
Are customized grips available?
Yes. ITM-LAB can evaluate custom fixture solutions based on specimen geometry, dimensions, expected force and testing requirements.
Can the machine be configured for ASTM E8/E8M or ISO 6892-1?
The system can be configured for metallic tensile testing. Grips, strain measurement and verification requirements should be confirmed against the specified standard and revision.
