Lloyd Instrument’s VE1 extensometer offers high resolution measurement, simple preparations and an intuitive user interface. The video extensometer measures longitudinal strain between two applied lines at a rate of up to 100 Hz. The strain data is synchronized and transferred to NEXYGENPlus software.

Strains from 20 um/m up to more than 1000% can be measured. System calibration provides measurements from a few millimeters to multiple meters.

The VE1 video extensometer saves images during the tensile test and can be used until sample break. It is available in six sizes, has a large application area and can test a wide range of materials including metals, rigid plastics, composites, ceramics, thick films and more in both ambient and non-ambient temperature conditions.
