SP Series
Servo Pneumatic Dynamic Testing Machine
The SP Series servo pneumatic testing machine offers
highly efficient, rapid and reliable testing . It is ideally
suited to laboratory, production or clinical environments
where efforts to restrict noise and contamination levels
are paramount. Ideal for investigating the fatigue properties of a sample when applying cyclic loading, the system is capable of performing rigorous fatigue tests at up
to 40 Hz at 2 kN (450 lbf), 10 Hz at 10 kN (2248 lbf).
The machine consists of a sliding, fully adjustable
crosshead which is clamped by pinch bolts to twin
chromed solid steel columns. The crosshead is set prior
to testing and can accommodate samples of varying
dimensions. A servo pneumatic actuator is mounted to
the crosshead, with a specially designed loadcell which
can be fixed to either the base or the crosshead. The
sample is secured between the solid base and actuator
rod by a comprehensive range of grips, jigs and fixtures.
The system is controlled by a personal computer (not
included), using specialist Microsoft Windows compatible testing software. It also contains its own embedded
RISC processor and digital controller ensuring dynamic
tests continue to run even in the absence of a computer.
By using durable components and ensuring test routines run quietly and smoothly, maintenance is kept to a
minimum. Integral safety features include an adjustable
safety collar to prevent the crosshead from falling when
slackened, large base mounted emergency cut-off
switch and an optional splinter shield is available. The
machine uses its compressed air supply to dissipate
heat generated during prolonged testing.

Splinter Shields
Optional splinter shields are available to protect the user
when testing brittle samples which are liable to
fragment. The shields help prevent sample splinters
leaving the test area when performing a test.
Shields for twin column machines, are fully hinged, and
can be easily opened allowing full access to the test
area from the front or back of the machine. The
machine automatically detects whether the doors are
open or closed, ensuring the shield is always securely
closed before it will perform a test.
Single column splinter shields are available to a range
of specifications, depending on the required testing
application. There are two main types:
Sliding splinter shields, move in the vertical axis of the
machine column and can be easily lowered to safely
enclose test area, once sample is positioned.
Hinged splinted shields are available in a range of
sizes and can be fitted to enclose either the test area
or the entire machine.

Specifying a Compression Cage

As all Compression Cages are custom made, due to varying sample types
and size, you will need to discuss the following points when specifying a
compression cage with your local distributor:
Which materials testing machine is to be used with the compression cage?

What is the sample type and size?
What is the required internal cage dimensions?
What is the maximum load?
What stroke/vertical travel is required?
What is the size and type of upper platen required? (flat/round/dome)
Please contact your local distributor for more information on compression cages.

Extensometers
Non-Contacting
LASERSCAN 200
The Laserscan 200 is a versatile, non-contacting laser
extensometer. A bright red scanning beam illuminates
the sample and gauge markers, making it easy to set
up and align. The Laserscan 200 includes four gain
settings allowing it to be used over a wide range of
gauge lengths without adjustment to its calibration or
position. It incorporates a digital display, which is used
to facilitate calibration and provides a continuous
readout. The instrument has an analogue output (010V) which allows it to be interfaced with all LLOYD
INSTRUMENTS and most other materials testing
machines.
Two reflective markers denote the gauge length of the
sample. The Laserscan senses the leading edges of
these markers and is unaffected by their shape,
making accurate setting of the gauge length a very
simple procedure. An 80Hz laser beam sweeps the
axial length of the specimen, illuminating and
detecting the position of the gauge markers. As the
sample is stressed the markers separate and any
movement is measured. The Laserscan 200 is
supplied with an adjustable stand to allow accurate
positioning for different length test specimens.

The Laserscan 200 eliminates any problems associated

with contacting extensometers making it particularly
suitable for elastomeric samples where the pressure
of knife edges on a contacting extensometer could
induce local stresses and weaken the sample. Specialist
punches for applying reflective tape targets can be
ordered separately.

Thermal Cabinets and

High Temperature Furnaces
Designed for testing samples under pre-defined
temperature conditions, a range of thermal cabinets is
available, providing a temperature range from -70C to
+300C within a large general purpose test area.
A high speed centrifugal fan provides rapid air movement
within each cabinet allowing rapid temperature cycling
with minimal temperature gradients. Visual inspection is
made easy thanks to a large triple glased observation
panel. For added versatility the thermal cabinets are
mounted on wheels which run on an independent base
unit for backwards and forwards movement.This enables
normal ambient tests to be carried out by simply sliding
the cabinet free from the machines crosshead.
The chamber interior is constructed from fully seam
welded high grade polished stainless steel and is
completely separated from the exterior panels by a
thermal break. This minimises conducted heat transfer.
The hinged door incorporates a high temperature
replaceable silicone rubber gasket which provides a
vapour seal against the chamber liner.

NEXYGEN FM Software
Data Analysis and Applications Software for the
LFPlus Universal Testing Systems
NEXYGEN FM software is an extremely easy to use
materials testing software package designed to
integrate directly with LLOYD INSTRUMENTS
LFPlus testing machines.
The software is intuitive and allows the user to collect
and analyse load and extension data from a common
set of pre-configured test setups. It features
seamless OLE2 integration with Microsoft Word
and Excel, enabling the user to create detailed and
comprehensive reports using common and familiar
packages. Developed with the user in mind,
NEXYGEN FM software is ideal for even the most
inexperienced operator, minimising training and
allowing you to get up and running easily and quickly!
Simplified Test Setup

Test setup screens enable the user to specify and
select attributes for a particular test, supported by a
series of intelligent prompts, combo boxes, pull
down menus and other help functions.
By selecting either a tensile, compression or cycling
test, the configurator screen (see screen c)
automatically presents the user with configurable
parameters relevant to that test only, thereby
eliminating possible confusion. Having completed
this simple procedure, the test can begin.
If the same type of test is required for many
samples, a 'template feature' can also be used to
simplify the creation of new test files, thereby
speeding up testing further.
Software control console
The console is situated on the test results screen and
serves as an interface to the desired test instrument.
The user can control the test machine operations
remotely from the computer and collect and analyse
measurement results.

NEXYGEN FM presents results in a graphical and
tabular format shown together on the same screen
for easier viewing and analysis (see screen b).
A double-click on any line in a batch of results will
display the associated graph.
Results can be colour coded for immediate Pass/Fail
recognition.
Graphical features: A graph can be specified with
user defined or default axes, stress/strain curves
and the modulus can be displayed. By overlaying
one test with another, graphical comparisons can
also be made.

ONDIO
Application Builder Software
Customize Your NEXYGEN MT Applications
NEXYGEN software packages have been engineered to
offer solutions for the most common force measurement
and materials testing applications. However, when users
need to perform custom testing or simply want to modify
their NEXYGEN test setup to perform additional
functions not part of the standard setup, LLOYD
INSTRUMENTS offers the Ondio application builder
software.
Ondio software is based upon the VBScript
programming language. It presents detailed attributes of
the NEXYGEN MT package providing configurable
parameters in three steps: Test Parameters, Primary
Script and Secondary Script:
Step 1 Establishing Your Test Parameters
Ondio software interfaces with the NEXYGEN test setup
and provides additional attributes that can be used for
the test. These attributes include:
Direction (tension or compression)

Preload
Auto Measure Sample Height
Known Height
Area
Break Detection
Auto Zero
Auto Return
Extra Results
ONDIO
These attributes help to further define your NEXYGEN

setup with very specific test parameters.
Step 2 Define How Your Machine Operates
at Startup and at the End of the Test
The primary script is used to define how your NEXYGEN
application will operate at the start and the end of the test.
It determines how the machine moves when readings are
taken and what results are presented.

The advantage of using VBScript is that the language is

intuitive and easy to learn. The STAGE command helps
define how the machine will move and can be established
based on extension or load. Ondio software recognizes
parameters in [brackets] and the units associated with the
parameter. If the parameter is incorrect, Ondio software
will identify the problem in your script to help in
troubleshooting.
60
The RESULT command identifies the column heading

to be used as the values for the specified result type.
Results can be recorded based on the pre-defined load
limits or extension or can be determined by calculations
or combination of results such as the sample modulus.
Loop counters for cycling testing can be created, stage
limits calculated and Progress routines established to
determine how far a test has progressed in completing
the entire test setup. In addition, preconditions can be
created that prompt the user to take manual action prior
to the test being allowed to commence. It is even
possible to compensate for typical testing factors, such
as a pause by the machine during a relaxation
measurement.
Step 3 What To Do With Your Results
Secondary scripting defines how your results will be
used. The secondary script can be used to post
markers at specific points on the trace to denote key
characteristics. Markers can be defined based on load,
extension, work and time. The secondary script includes
a built in Modulus which can be used to determine the
steepest gradient and draw a tangential line along the
trace. Secondary script can be used to prompt a
NEXYGEN test to react at the break point of a sample.
For example, it is possible to specify to record the
LoadAtBreak, ExtnAtBreak and the WorkAtBreak.

Ondio software can also be used to expand the data

acquisition functionality of a NEXYGEN application.
Ondio software can operate with an interface card for
reading analogue or digital signals. This allows users to:
Continuously collect analogue data from an input
channel
Terminate a drive stage when either an analogue
or digital signal falls below a user-defined threshold
Automatically convert the input voltage to the required
unit (e.g. extensometer output converted to extension)
Change the state of a digital output (switch equipment
