Strobes & Tachometers
-
Imada is proud to introduce a line of speed measurement instruments from Hoto Instruments. Stroboscopes can be used to measure the measure the linear rotational speed of rapidly rotating objects. Imada also offers a digital tachometer / lengthmeter. The tachometer / lengthmeter measures speed or revolutions and features exceptional accuracy even at low speeds. The tachometer can be paired with an optional 12″ wheel to measure the surface speed of conveyer belts and similar machinery.

Mechanical Force Gauges
-
Imada mechanical force gauges are highly accurate instruments used to test the quality, strength or functionality of component parts or products. Imada mechanical force gauges check both compression and tension (push or pull). Peak force can be captured using the peak indicator needle and the tare ring compensates for the weight of attachments. Imada force gauges are constructed with a heavy-duty metal case and all metal components to enable them to retain their calibration for years with proper care. These mechanical force gauges never need charging or batteries and are intrinsically safe in hazardous environments.

Spring Testers
-
Imada offers manual or motorized spring testers in vertical or horizontal configurations.Lever-operated manual systems enable rapid compression and tension spring testing.Wheel-operated manual systems enable slower, more precise movement with the hand wheel.Motorized compression testers offer the most control and highest degree of repeatability with the ability to set a constant test speed and range of movement.All spring testers can be configured with a digital force gauge with data output for analysis by data acquisition software. An optional digital distance meter to measure displacement is available.

Tension Testers
-
Tension testers come in a variety of options. Lever-operated testers allow for quick and repeatable tension testing, making them ideally suited for measurement in high-throughput environments. The wheel-operated tensions tester allows for more precise control, which is critical whenever testing delicate materials. Our motorized tension tester provides consistent test speeds providing more accurate and repeatable results.

Durometer Hardness Testers
-
IMADA, Inc., provides accurate measuring devices for every need. Some of the many high-quality instruments we manufacture are durometers. Durometers are important to the manufacturing sector because they measure the hardness of materials. These include normal and hard rubber, as well as soft and hard plastics, by assessing the resistance to indentation of polymers, elastomers, and rubbers. They do this by applying pressure to the surface of an object via an indentor and measuring the level of resistance. The results are expressed in terms of the Shore hardness scale, which varies based on the materials.

Force Displacement Testers
-
Force displacement testing measures how much force is required to displace or deform a specific component or material. It’s an important aspect of quality control in manufacturing as well as material science. It’s necessary to help ensure products are made to the proper standards and to verify the properties of certain materials. Imada provides a range of force displacement testers that provide precise and accurate measurements, with numerous features to help technicians complete testing as quickly and effectively as possible.
