This video introduces Instron’s premier extensometer solution, the AVE3. It is unrivaled in versatility, offering precision strain measurement for tensile, compression, and bend testing.
Delivering unparalleled flexibility, the AVE3 can be used for testing small to large gauge lengths, low to high elongations, flat and round specimens, and sensitive materials like films – eliminating the need to purchase and maintain multiple clip-on devices.
It’s even compatible with temperature chambers and fluid baths for non-ambient applications. As a non-contacting solution, there’s no cumbersome attachment step prior to testing, and strain can be tracked through failure without risking damage to the device, even when testing explosive failures of composites.
The AVE3’s compliance to ISO 9513 and ASTM E83, paired with its real-time 500 Hz data rate, allows you to test to the most stringent standards.
