SSG Series Strain Gauge Extensometers
-
Shimadzu’s SSG series of strain gauge extensometers are compliant with ISO, JIS, and ASTM tensile test standards, including those for plastics and metallic materials These lightweight, precision extensometers feature a wide elongation measurement range, while retaining the flexibility to measure using small gauge lengths, and support both rod and flat plate shaped specimens. Consisting of an elongation sensor and amplifier, this extensometer is suitable for use with metals and hard plastic materials, and is fastened securely to specimens with screws. Calibration using an extensometer calibrator allows the extensometer to meet JIS and ISO Class 0.5 and ASTM Class C standards for higher accuracy.

High-Temperature Extensometers < 1000°C Capacitive
2632 Series
-
Is typically used in hot tensile applications with tube type furnaces and consist of a separate measuring unit and suspension arm assembly. The measuring unit uses an LVDT with a fixed travel that remains outside of the furnace, the arms are located mostly inside of the heating system and attach the specimen to the measuring unit.

Automatic Extensometer
SIE-560A/560SA
-
To determine the suitability of a material for an application where it is under load, measuring its elongation is important. Measuring elongation enables determination of the elastic modulus (reversible elongation in the elastic region) by measuring the small initial elongation range, and determination of elongation at specimen failure, by measuring larger irreversible elongation in the plastic region. Shimadzu’s SIE-560A series automatic extensometers accomplish both of these measurements with high accuracy, and provide automated functions that increase testing efficiency and test reproducibility. Ideal for testing a wide variety of materials, including metallic materials, plastics, and composites, the SIE-560A series complies with ISO 527, JIS K 7161, and ASTM D638 standards for plastics tensile testing. In addition, the SIE-560A series supports strain-rate controlled metallic material tensile testing measurements specified in ISO 6892, JIS Z 2241, and ASTM E4

Environmental Chambers
3119-600 Series
-
The Instron environmental chambers are precision thermal enclosures designed to integrate with static or dynamic test systems, enabling evaluation of material behavior under controlled non-ambient conditions. They circulate hot or cold air over specimens and grips using forced-convection to maintain stable temperatures. These chambers are available in a variety of standard sizes (or can be customized), and are compatible with extensometers, grips, and fixtures to provide a turnkey solution for temperature-dependent testing from subzero to elevated conditions.

Submersible Extensometers
Model 4030
-
Jinan Testing Equipment IE Corporation
The Model 4030 extensometer uses a special LVDT-like sensor to measure strains on samples submersed in water or other compatible liquids. The unit is provided with the signal conditioning electronics. The extensometer is a semi-custom design, which is available in smaller measuring ranges up to 5 mm (0.2 inches). Clip-on (COD) style designs are also available.

High Temperature, Low Strain Capacitive Extensometers (1200 C or 1600 C)
Model 3648
-
Jinan Testing Equipment IE Corporation
These extensometers use a high temperature capacitive sensor in combination with an innovative design to achieve high accuracy strain measurements in low measuring ranges not possible with other high temperature extensometers. They mount on a slide bracket (included) that can attach to the load frame of your test system; optional load frame mounting brackets are available. The overall design reduces any influence from common lab environment vibrations.The standard temperature version (to 1200℃) is supplied with high purity alumina rods. The high temperature option is furnished with alpha grade silicon carbide rods. Rods are made to order to the length required for your furnace. These units are made to order in many different gauge lengths and measuring ranges.The extensometer comes with a signal conditioner. The output is an analog DC voltage, factory calibrated with the extensometer to 0 to ±10 VDC typically. They are readily interfaced with most existing test controllers, and may be directly connected to data acquisition systems and chart recorders. Bringing the signal into a spare DC input channel (or external input) on the test controller allows the extensometer to be used for strain controlled tests like low cycle fatigue.
