Fully Automated Low-Temperature Testing

Microprocessor-controlled cooling rate regulation ensures strict compliance with the 1°C/min protocol. The system automatically bends specimens at each temperature step, eliminating operator subjectivity and improving inter-laboratory reproducibility.

Triple-Specimen Simultaneity

Three test positions operate in unison under identical thermal conditions, enabling statistically valid results in a single run. Average breaking point is computed and printed automatically.

Integrated Cryogenic Ecosystem

The dedicated low-temperature circulatory bath delivers stable sub-zero conditioning with a professional compressor rated at 1600W. The dual-unit architecture separates thermal generation from the test chamber, minimizing vibration interference.
