This universal testing machine provides a 420 mm, 16.5 in, test width. Vertical crosshead travel depends on the frame configuration: 1000 mm, 39.4 in, for the standard single-space version, 900 mm, 35.4 in, for the standard dual-space version, and 1300 mm, 51.2 in, for the extended single-space version.
The frame width remains the same across these versions, but the usable working space in your test setup will also be influenced by the grips, compression platens, flexural fixtures, load cell, and any extensometer or chamber added to the system. That is important when sizing the machine for tensile, compression, or bend testing with taller fixtures or longer specimens.
