reached, starting the test. The Deformation distance should be set large enough to completely separate the
sample. The test speed may be set as desired between 0.1mm/s up to 10mm/s. Bring the upper grip down to
a distance sufficient to clamp the sample. After clamping the sample, lower the top grip 1 or 2 mm to relieve
any tension on the sample. It is important that the sample not be under tension when the test is started.
When using the Dual Grips with Texture-Pro CT Software, use the Adjust Beam button to lower the top
grip to the starting position so the sample can be clamped. The screen below is a starting guideline to set up
the test method and sample information.
The deformation Target Value, Trigger Load and Test Speed may be selected according to your needs.
