Lever action allowing for rapid testing
Large work area accommodates a wide variety of samples
Stroke 2"
Maximum load 220 lbf (100 kgf)
Two models available, the LH-220S includes a distance meter

Specifications

Resolution	0.0005"/0.01 mm
Accuracy	±0.01"/0.2mm

The LH-220 Horizontal Manual Lever Test Stand provides maximum versatility and reliability. The large working platform accommodates a wide variety of samples and is ideal for pull testing. The stand is unaffected by gravity and does not use a return spring. This makes the stand perfect for crimp testing and force testing where rapid sample loading is desirable. Rubber feet provide a stable base. The LH-220S model is equipped with a digital distance meter.

SH-220 Horizontal Wheel Stand

Features of the SH-220

Horizontal design is ideal for push / pull testing and other applications
Hand wheel provides relatively consistent speed for repeatable tests
Gauge remains in place when hand wheel is released
One stand for both compression (push) and tension (pull) tests
Continuous stroke 7.5"
Optional digital distance meter (SH-220S)

Specifications
Display	Push button for inch/mm, zero set and on/off
Resolution	0.0005"/0.01 mm
Accuracy	0.1% of reading or 0.005"/0.1mm, whichever is greater

For push / pull tests and other force measurements where a horizontal test stand is required, the SH-220 Manual Horizontal Hand Wheel Test Stands are an ideal choice. The test stands feature the advantages of the hand wheel design; relatively consistent speed, precise gauge positioning, and bi-directional movement. The low-profile SH-220 accepts any of the standard range Imada force gauges and special attachments.

ML-275 Motorized Horizontal Stand

Features of the ML-275

Combination of screw drive system and high performance brushless motor provides extremely smooth and powerful operation over the entire speed range.
One stand for both compression (push) and tension (pull) tests
Wide speed range: 0.3 – 7 in/min (optional speed ranges available)
Stroke 9.5"
No programming required
Optional digital distance meter and Speed Configurations (ML-275S)
275 lbf capacity

Speed Configurations
Standard Speed	0.3~7"/min
Optional High Speed	0.6~15.7"/min
Optional Low Speed	0.2~4.2"/min

ML-275 motorized test stands offer basic force testing. A combination of screw system and state-of-the-art brushless motor provides extremely smooth and powerful operation over the entire speed range. Speed control, quick return and emergency stop are standard features. The ML-275 accepts any of the standard range Imada force gauges. AP-002 Adapter Plate is available to mount most other force gauges to IMADA test stands.

MH-275 Motorized Horizontal Test Stand

Features of the MH-275

One stand for both compression (push) and tension (pull) tests
Combination of screw drive system and high performance brushless motor provides extremely smooth and powerful operation over the entire speed range.
Jog, Single Cycle, Continuous Cycle (72 hour max.), Force Control Force Control operation with Imada Z Series force gauges
Wide speed range: 0.3 – 7 in/min (optional speed ranges available)
Stroke 9.5"
Optional timer and digital distance meter (MH-275S)
Conditional Overload Prevention
275 lbf capacity

Speed Configurations
Standard Speed	0.3~7"/min
Optional High Speed	0.6~15.7"/min
Optional Low Speed	0.2~4.2"/min

MH-275 motorized test stands offer advanced force testing. The combination of the screw drive system and a state-of-the-art brushless motor provides extremely smooth and powerful operation over the entire speed range. Connect the MH-275 test stand with an Imada Series force gauge and enable force controlled testing and Conditional Overload Prevention.

High/Low Set Point Force Control: Force control is activated when the applied force is at or between the high and low set point(s) of the Z Series force gauge and is deactivated by the digital timer. Initial carriage speed is controlled by the variable or fixed speed settings.
One Way Force Control: Initial carriage speed is controlled by the variable or fixed speed settings. When the applied force reaches the low set point of the Z Series force gauge, the test stand’s carriage speed is adjusted to 20% of the maximum, and decreases to zero as the applied force reaches the high set point. Ideal for non-destructive testing. Speed control, quick return and emergency stop are standard features. The MH-275 accepts any of the standard range Imada force gauges. Optional timer and digital distance meter available. AP-002 Adapter Plate is available to mount most other force gauges to IMADA test stands.

MH-750 Motorized Horizontal Test Stand

Features of the MH-750

Stroke: 12"
Optional digital distance meter available
750 lbf capacity

Speed Configurations
Standard Speed	.4~4"/min
Optional High Speed	.8~8"/min
Optional Low Speed	.2~2"/min

Imada motorized test stands offer consistent and reliable testing. Our Basic or Auto Cycle models are available in Standard, High, and Low speeds. Speed control, quick return and emergency stop are standard features. They accept any of the standard range Imada force gauges and special attachments. Optional digital distance meter is also available.

Basic Model: MH-750BA Basic Models have top and bottom travel limits that can be adjusted for a precise range of movement. Set the travel limits, flip the direction switch up to move the cross head up to the top travel limit at the selected speed. Flip the direction switch down to send the cross head down to the bottom travel limit. The speed is set by a Speed Adjust knob. Quick Return and Emergency Stop features are also included.

Auto Cycle Model: MH-750AC Auto cycle models have top and bottom travel limits that can be adjusted for a precise range of movement. Speed Adjust, Quick Return and Emergency Stop features are also included. These stands have three function modes.

Manual Mode: While the Direction switch is held up, the head moves up. Holding the switch down moves the cross head down. When the switch is released the head stops. This mode is ideal for positioning.

Single Cycle Mode: When the Direction switch is pushed up, the cross head moves up at the desired speed, and when it reaches the top travel limit, it automatically goes back and stops at the bottom travel limit, completing one cycle. Pushing the switch down runs the cycle in reverse.

Auto Cycle Mode: This mode is similar to Single Cycle mode, except that the cross head travels up and down repeating the cycle until either the Power or Emergency switches is turned off. This mode is ideal for applications such as fatigue testing.
