CT5000 5kN in-situ tensile stage for µXCT applications

In association with the major manufacturers µXCT systems including Zeiss, RX Solutions, Tescan/XRE, Nikon, Thermo Fisher Scientific and Waygate/GE we are now able to offer an integrated tensile testing solution for your µXCT application. Using tensile testing with µXCT provides a clear visual interpretation of how the properties of materials and composites change under different loading conditions. The compact design of these testing stages allow them to be used with the smallest high resolution micro CT systems providing a range of tensile, compression and torsion stages with forces up to 20kN and resolutions down to 25mN. Systems are controlled from the comprehensive MICROTEST tensile stage control software giving a wide range of control functions and a live display of load versus extension and supplied with all required cabling and mounting adaptors for specific µXCT systems. Further details and pricing is available from your micro CT supplier or direct from Tansi.

The CT5000 in-situ testing stage is versatile and adaptable, with a weight of less than 6kg it is suitable for mounting within the most common mid range µXCT systems such as the Nikon XTH-225, Zeiss/Xradia Versa and GE v|tome|x among others.

Currently there are three versions of the CT5000 available:

CT5000RT, operates at room temperature only.
CT5000TEC, Peltier heated & cooled jaws with temperature range from -20°C to +160°C
CT5000H250, heated jaws with temperature range from room temperature to +250°C

CT5000RT can be ordered as TEC or H250 “ready” for future upgrade

CT5000 options:

CT5000TEC, Peltier heated & cooled jaws with temperature range from -20°C to +160°C
CT5000H250, heated jaws with temperature range from room temperature to +250°C
Exchangeable loadcell kit to allow user the ability to change loadcells
3 & 4 point bending clamps
Liquid crucible to allow in-liquid compression testing
Custom jaws and specimen mounts for large or small specimens
