Software Enables Dynamic Materials
Testing
Nexygen MT control and data analysis software and Ondio application builder software allows Lloyd Instruments' universal testing machines to be used in dynamic materials testing applications.
The powerful combination of Nexygen MT control and data analysis software and Ondio application builder software allows Lloyd Instruments' universal testing machines to be used in dynamic materials testing applications This means that samples under test can have other external parameters controlled or monitored as part of the test, with the results collected and presented in the required format by the software

Recording materials testing for analysis
A powerful feature that records live action of materials testing events for training and detailed analysis purposes is now available on the latest version of Nexygen MT instrument control software
Applications are varied.
Temperature is an important parameter and the software can either simply monitor temperature values from a device such as a thermocouple, or take control of heating and/or cooling devices to allow tests to be carried out at controlled temperatures or through different temperature cycles.
Other examples include monitoring parameters in onboard chips in credit cards as the cards are flexed; monitoring transmission of optical fibres during compression and measuring short circuits in electrical wires during crush tests.
Nexygen MT features a vast library of international standard tests for many different applications and may be used to control Lloyd Instruments' ''Plus', EZ and LR Series universal testing machines, the Davenport MFI-10 Melt Flow Indexer and HDT/VICATPlus, and supports the comprehensive range of Chatillon digital force gauges.
Nexygen software, however, offers far more than just control facilities.
It also includes strict multilevel security and audit trails for complete traceability of users and data.
Additional analysis is possible using video capture and 'live' test playback, and integrated drivers allow machine control in the LabVIEW platform.
