Dynamic Mechanical Analysis

The WinTest® DMA application software meets the challenges of Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA). When coupled with special fixturing, such as environmental chambers and our new DMA tensile grips, our ElectroForce® test instruments are the ideal platform for advanced viscoelastic property measurement of: Elastomers Biomaterials Gels Foods And more! Control for the ElectroForce instrument is provided by the WinTest® digital controls and software. This PC-based system features an intuitive interface and powerful test generation and data acquisition capabilities. WinTest's flexible design enables the ElectroForce series to perform a wide range of tests, including DMA and rheology. The WinTest DMA Software allows the user to define a series of test conditions that are automatically reproduced on the test system. The user can also step through a series of conditions to explore changes in material or component properties with respect to any controlled parameter. The DMA data analysis software makes it easy to look at the requested and actual test conditions and the original channel data. It uses FFT analysis to convert this data to viscoelastic properties and components. You can plot the data in a wide variety of ways or, if you prefer, export the data to a text file for analysis in other third party tools.
