The MWD is an easy-to-use, handwheel-operated twin-column
test stand, with a maximum capacity of 10kN (2200lbf).
Operation is via a handwheel, giving excellent positional control
of the crosshead for applications which require a load reading to
be taken at an exact displacement. Combined with a Mecmesin
loadcell and display or a digital force gauge, the MWD is a
low-cost solution to a variety of higher-rated tension and
compression testing applications.
Unlike other 10kN test stands, the MWD occupies minimal bench
space and due to it’s simple, compact design it can be used as a
portable unit for off-site testing.
