Hand wheel and lever operated Force Test Stands feature adjustable clearance settings that enable testing on a wide range of samples. The compact design reduces footprint.

• Versatile bottom mounting plate permits acceptance of both standard and custom-made attachments
• Adjustable clearance setting enables testing on a wide range of samples
• Precision gear movement provides a consistent linear motion that produces repetitively accurate results
• Modular, compact design reduces footprint, weight, and cost
• Sturdy all steel construction provides exceptional durability and extended life of the product
• Compatibility with many vendors’ force gauges facilitates flexibility when replacing older test stands
• Optional digital length meter added to stand creates deflection measurement testing for applications such as spring rate testing

Manual test stands offer the ability to obtain accurate and consistent results without the high cost of a motorized system

Both the lever and the hand wheel stands are available in various capacities and can ensure accurate, consistent test results with the addition of a Shimpo Instruments digital or mechanical force gage.

Nearly all manufacturers’ gauges are compatible with SHIMPO’s test stands for incredible versatility. These stands are designed for precision, balance, and durability. They are perfectly suited for measuring a limitless range of materials such as wire, spring, plastic, paper cord, tubing, glass, and composites.

The lever operated stands are ideal for rapid testing applications, and the hand wheel stands are excellent for applications where more precise control is necessary.
