testXpert offers a variety of installation wizards
With a variety of wizards, software operation can be customized to different user requirements.
- Standard wizard: The most important test and result parameters are found here.
- Expanded wizard: Here the selection also includes parameter dialogs which enable expanded settings.
- Customized wizard: There is no limit to how many wizards can be created. The active wizard is marked by a check.
Unique System Configuration Builder
The unique system configuration builder makes it possible to define repeatable test conditions and offers maximum safety for the user and testing system.
- All relevant testing system and safety settings such as crosshead position, tool separation, and sensor configuration are predefined and saved in a freely definable system configuration.
- The test arrangement must be set up only once with one assigned system configuration, ensuring a safe, reliable setup process.
- The saved system configuration automatically checks the connected sensors.
- Direct assignment of the test program to the system configuration.
- Preconfigured system configurations will be reloaded automatically after changing the test arrangement. This allows you to perform tests with identical settings.
- The user does not need to adjust settings when tools are changed. The correct system configuration is automatically loaded in the background,
- This ensures repeatable test conditions as well as maximum safety for the testing system and the user.
testXpert III always knows HOW, WHERE and WITH WHAT to test!
Protection for user and test system
Exactly repeatable test conditions
Test arrangement deformation measurement with the correction curve
For the performance of tests such as components testing without the use of an additional measuring transducer, testXpert III can make use of a correction curve. A solid steel cylinder is placed between the compression platens, and the machine is loaded up to nominal force. The deformation that is measured corresponds to the deformation of the testing machine, the load cell and the used compression platens. From this measurement, testXpert III determines a correction curve that is stored in the testControl machine electronics.
Maximum freedom provided by the graphical sequence editor
The graphical sequence editor provides you the highest level of freedom for your test sequence. You have the ability create individually tailored test sequences of any type, combining test events, parameters and results entirely in line with your requirements. It is the ideal tool for generating non-standardized test sequences,
and the intelligent design of the graphical sequence editor makes the job easy. Programming knowledge is not required, and learning
the functionality is simplified through graphic building blocks.
Synchronous Video Capturing for visualization of the test sequence
With the Video Capturing option, a video is recorded parallel to the test using a webcam or camcorder. Integrated hardware synchronization allows frame-accurate synchronization of testXpert III test data and video. During playback of the video the correlative test data are shown in the curve graph via cross-hairs; alternatively the cross-hairs are used to select any desired line of measured values and the corresponding video image is automatically obtained. This allows accurate retrospective visual assessment of the course of the test, e.g. when, how and where necking, buckling, delamination or change in color of the specimen occurred.
ZIMT:
The ZIMT macro programming language provides the ability to easily integrate macros in many areas of testXpert III. These range from simple operator instructions to complex, customer-specific result algorithms.
This allows you to easily integrate necessary instructions in the test sequence. For example, the user can be reminded to remove all specimen remains after the test. In every case, a wizard guides the user through all the necessary steps.
