5 testXpert ® <strong>II</strong> has yet more to offer<br />

Innovative testing systems call for components from a<br />

single source matched to each <strong>other</strong> down to the finest<br />

detail and it is precisely this advantage that <strong>Zwick</strong> offers<br />

you. Our testXpert ® <strong>II</strong> software and testControl control<br />

electronics were developed in-house by our experts and<br />

together they form a perfectly matched total system.<br />

One feature of testControl is adaptive control, which<br />

automatically adapts to any specimen. Time-consuming,<br />

cost-intensive pre-testing is no longer necessary.<br />

Real-time correction for machine stiffness is an<strong>other</strong><br />

important function only available with <strong>Zwick</strong> systems.<br />

The system‘s modular design allows it to adapt precisely<br />

to the requirements of the test being performed, via<br />

modules plugged into testControl (e.g. universal I/O<br />

module), various data acquisition cards and the 1000 Hz<br />

online data transfer facility. testXpert ® <strong>II</strong> identifies all<br />

hardware components for automatic management,<br />

enabling quick, easy hardware configuration.<br />

Adaptive Control<br />

Automatic setting of all control parameters enables exact<br />

approaching of target positions and strain control to ISO<br />

6892-1 2009 Method A. Changes in specimen properties<br />

are compensated for online.<br />

Real-time machine deformation correction<br />

Maximum possible travel measurement and positioning<br />

accuracy when measuring with the crosshead travel<br />

encoder. Control and positioning take place directly on the<br />

corrected channel.<br />

This option provides digital I/O and analog outputs for<br />

external control of the machine or detection of switch<br />

contacts. Switching processes are registered<br />

synchronously to the testXpert ® <strong>II</strong> measurement channels.<br />

Automatic firmware update<br />

On installation of a testXpert ® <strong>II</strong> update the testControl<br />

firmware is automatically updated, ensuring that your<br />

testControl electronics are always up to date.<br />
