SAUTER SAUTER AFH LD Data transfer software

AFH LD software is designed for all applications that require the measurement of forces, depending on the displacement. Typically these are force progression graphs in penetration tests or pullout tests

The program simultaneously requests the measurements from a force measuring device, e.g. SAUTER FH, as well as a length measuring device, e.g. SAUTER LB or SAUTER LD

The measurements from both instruments are transferred continuously to the PC, synchronised by the AFH LD software and exported in the form of a graphic, as well as free data format for simple processing in Microsoft Excel®

The software AFH LD is compatible with all instruments of series SAUTER FC, FH, FL, FS

These measuring instruments are usually used with SAUTER test stands, in particular those from the SAUTER TVM-N and TVS range. However, it is also possible to use them with mechanical testing machines

Further analysis functions:

- Extension of the test object

- Tensile and compressive force

- Endurance testing
