The compact LFV series represents ergonomic and space-saving testing systems, ideal for characterizing the static and dynamic properties of materials and components with force capacities of up to 50 kN.

.

The machine’s hydraulic power unit is integrated into the base of the testing machine, making this series extremely compact, space-efficient, and easy to install.

.

The fatigue-rated actuator is conveniently mounted on the upper crosshead.
The system incorporates an integrated lower base plate with highly versatile T-slots.
The corrosion-resistant T-slot platen is ideal for mounting grips, fixtures, specimens, and any type of engineering components or finished products.

.

Typical applications include monotonic (static) tensile, compression, bending, shear, and other tests, as well as durability and fatigue testing, including fatigue crack growth testing. It is also suitable for testing components and assemblies used in biomedical, automotive, aerospace, electronics, plastic injection molding, and other industries.
