The TA.HDplus Texture Analyser

The new TA-HDplus Texture Analyser is extremely efficient, capable of high-speed testing and boasts a completely new comprehensive software package. Multi-stage test programming facilities so the user can define individual arm movement sequences at various speeds and distances. This unique control feature enables the most complex test protocols to be established. As a result, the Texture Analyser is no longer limited to fixed library tests. However, all the TA.XT2/HD tests are provided for your convenience and can be accessed with just a few mouse clicks. The ability to plug-in peripheral instruments has been incorporated into the design to provide multi-channel data acquisition. This allows for many other measuring devices to be used in conjunction with the TA.HDplus and their data simultaneously collected, such as temperature and humidity monitors. High speed testing up to 20mm/s can be reached using 5kg, 30kg, 50kg, 100kg, 250kg, 500kg and 750 kg (7.5kN) load cells. This will be of interest when matching specific operational conditions or imitating real-life situations. New firmware can be downloaded ('Flash Upgraded') to the TA.HDplus by a quick and simple software interface so that new features can be added to enhance the instrument capabilities.
