Waters Corporation announced on February 4, 2025, the launch of the TA Instruments™ ElectroForce™ Apex 1 Mechanical Testing Instrument. This instrument is specifically designed to offer increased versatility, speed, and ease of use for precise tensile and fatigue testing of high-performance and lightweight polymers and composites.
The ElectroForce Apex 1 Instrument features a motor stroke range that is at least 43% greater than its competition, providing laboratories and manufacturers with the flexibility to perform monotonic and fatigue testing across a wider variety of materials. This increased range also accelerates testing by up to 30%, which can reduce costs early in development.
Designed to minimize operator steps and errors, the instrument includes new software features like TuneIQ™ Technology for automatic instrument tuning without intervention. Its new motor control system improves break-stop capabilities, enhancing workflow options and operator confidence for unsupervised, longer experiments.
