Interface for Motorized Force / Length Testers
FLASH technology was redesigned from the ground up with full color interactive graphics using a 10.4″ LCD touch screen interface and allows for on-demand statistical and graphical analysis. Test a part instantly with Quick Test. Manipulate the platform to any force or length with Manual Mode. Set up your standard testing procedures with Program Mode, then run them with Automatic Mode. Save up to 99 different tests in memory and use Quick Launch to run them with a touch of the screen.

Quick Test
This is spring testing at its easiest — no programming required! Simply place your part, push the Learn button, and the FLASH automatically calculates free length, solid height, rate and 20% and 80% deflection. Descriptive graphics and graphs enhance the Quick Test experience.

Quick Launch
Imagine a tester capable of quickly handling two or more unique tests at the same time. Now switch to Quick Launch and you’re there! Easily switch between different users’ tests or revision levels with a few quick touches and back again. Now, interrupting “this will be just a minute” tests really are “just a minute”.

Manual Mode
With a new intuitive jog switch and “Go To” button, Manual Mode allows you to manipulate the platform to any length or force you specify within seconds.

Program Mode
Complete testing sequences for Automatic Mode are programmed here, and include the test commands, sortingoptions and other preferences.

Automatic Mode
The FLASH Automatic Mode offers completely flexible testing options. View information by test or by lot. Statistical graphs, X-bar, range graphs and more!
