From the fully-featured Advanced Force Gauge, through the budget-priced Basic Force Gauge, to the elementary Compact Force Gauge.
Developed for quality control within industrial sectors as diverse as pharmaceuticals, food, packaging and medical device manufacturing, the new instrument ranges enable both value to be added to quality-controlled products, and operating efficiencies to be improved.
The new AFG is the most versatile and fully-featured of the gauges.
A rugged, ergonomically-shaped aluminium case makes this instrument particularly suitable for handheld applications.
Power is supplied either from a mains-adaptor or standard rechargeable NiMH batteries, enabling quality control laboratory, or on-site applications to be satisfied with equal ease.
Available in 2.5N to 1000N capacities, this unique product offers many new features including the ALC, Advanced Loadcell Cartridge.
Ideal for a ranges of applications requiring an instrument to measure across a broad range of forces, the relevant ALC for each application can simply be attached to the AFG display via the snap-fix connector.
The ALC, with all calibration and range data, is automatically recognised and the gauge is ready to use - with no need to buy an additional instrument. Request a free brochure from Mecmesin ...
