ADMET Debuts Low-Cost Materials Testing Peak Load Indicator; Captures Tension, Compression, Flexure Testing Data...Business Editors/High-Tech Writers NORWOOD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 16, 2003 EDITOR'S NOTE: Contact sandym@scg-pr.com for .JPG See JPEG. jpg - JPEG picture and graphics. ADMET ADMET Acyclic Diene Metathesis ADMET Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity (drug properties) Inc., a provider of integrated materials testing systems, today introduced a new low-cost indicator for materials testing. Called the pi Peak Load Indicator, its simple setup and easy to read live load, peak load and optional load rate display make it practical for many testing environments. Designed to work with a wide range of materials testing machines from virtually any supplier, the pi Peak Load Indicator exceeds American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM ASTM abbr. American Society for Testing and Materials ) E4 accuracy requirements. The pi Peak Load Indicator is ideal for measuring peak load during tension, compression and flexure flexure /flex·ure/ (flek´sher) a bend or fold; a curvation. caudal flexure the bend at the aboral end of the embryo. cephalic flexure the curve in the midbrain of the embryo. tests. Its rugged construction, optional battery pack and Auto-Test-Reset function enable remote onsite testing. The load rate option can be used to ensure that tests are performed according to ASTM specifications when testing concrete cylinders, concrete beams, cement cubes or other types of load rate sensitive materials. The pi Peak Load Indicator is also well suited for proof load testing and measuring pull-out or press-in forces. "The pi Peak Load Indicator is being introduced in direct response to calibrator calibrator an instrument for dilating a tubular structure or for determining the caliber of such a structure. and customer requests for a versatile, low-cost device to capture materials testing data," said Richard Gedney, ADMET founder and president. "It allows them to deploy appropriate, easy-to-use, low-cost, highly reliable technology for construction, education, laboratory and manufacturing applications." The pi Peak Load Indicator offers several features to make operation easy and reliable. Software programmable calibration is password protected and stored in permanent nonvolatile memory; this eliminates the need to manually adjust potentiometers. Peak load results remain displayed until cleared by the operator or the next test commences. Several other features are detailed in a brochure available at: www.admet.com/assets/pi%20Peak%20Load%20Indicator%20Brochure.pdf. ADMET also offers several options including a pi Peak Load Indicator with Rate Display that includes load rate indication in force units per second, which can be viewed simultaneously with the load readout (1) A small display device that typically shows only a few digits or a couple of lines of data. (2) Any display screen or panel. . Pre-wired pressure transducers and Linear Variable Differential Transducer (LVDT LVDT Linear Variable Differential Transformer LVDT Linear Variable Displacement Transducer LVDT Linear Variable Differential Transducer LVDT Linear Voltage Differential Transformer LVDT Low Voltage Differential Transceiver LVDT Low Voltage Differential Transducer ) conditioning modules are also available. The pi Peak Load Indicator is priced at $595 and the pi Peak Load Indicator with Rate Display is priced at $775. Both are available immediately directly from ADMET, as well as from ADMET representatives and calibrators.
