ElectroForce® 3200 Series III
tttttTest Instrument
Bose® test instruments incorporate proprietary linear motion technologies and
WinTest® controls to provide a revolutionary approach to dynamic mechanical
testing. The Bose 3200 Series III family of tests instruments offers improved
features, providing unparalleled performance and versatility for challenging
applications requiring low amplitude testing accuracy.
The 3200 Series III test instrument may be configured for 225 N or optionally,
450 N maximum force capacity. The system has a wide bandwidth, capable of
performing tests from static conditions to cyclic tests up to 300 Hz and 200
Hz for DMA.
Innovation in the Material Testing Industry
The Bose
High Accuracy
Displacement
Sensor is the
first use in the
material testing industry of a
new technology that provides
displacement resolution of a
nanometer and accuracies in
the range of microns.
Accuracy – Exceeds ASTM E-2309’s
toughest standard, Class A
Resolution – Unparalleled 1 nm resolution
Responsiveness – Reduced signal latency
results in significantly improved controls
responsiveness
Absolute displacement measurement –
High resolution and absolute measurement
