What is Scott Flex Tester?
The flexible materials comprehensive tester includes four motion testing modes: tensile, bending, flexing, and torsion. It is suitable for flexible materials such as printed electrodes, conductive polymers, graphene, liquid metals, and hydrogels, as well as flexible electronic devices such as sensors, capacitors, batteries, OLEDs, and electronic skin. It can collect the resistance, voltage, or current of the test material during motion testing. Measurement data can be read in real time on a computer, and the data can be recorded, analyzed, and displayed as planar coordinate curves and graphs.
Why Choose a Flexible Electronics Tester?
The Scott Flex Tester combines high-precision motion with a high-precision data acquisition module, featuring professional data reading and storage, and built-in algorithms, integrating detection, recording, and analysis.
Data export is convenient, supporting various formats, eliminating concerns about data format issues.
Similar instruments are complex and expensive! However, for general research, they don't cover all fields, making overly broad and complex functions meaningless because they are not relevant. The flexible electronics tester focuses on flexible electronics, with fewer but all practical functions, making it compact and useful for flexible electronics!
Test Principle
The test method typically involves fixing the two ends of the sample to two spaced-apart clamps, ensuring the clamps are tightly pressed together. In this state, one clamp is moved back and forth, rubbing the test piece fixed between the clamps. After a certain number of repetitions, the sample surface is observed for cracks, damage, or separation of the fabric base from the coating, to determine the product quality.
Operating Procedure
Before using the softness tester, ensure you have carefully read and understood the instruction manual, and understand the function and purpose of each operating part.
When using it, please follow these steps:
1. Place the material sample into the measuring chamber of the equipment, ensuring the position is correct and stable.
2. Gently touch the measuring head to the material surface, ensuring it is perpendicular to the surface.
3. Press the start test button and wait for the test results.
4. After completing the test, slowly remove the measuring head and remove the sample from the measuring chamber.
During operation, maintain focus and patience to avoid any misoperation. If any abnormality occurs during operation, please stop immediately and
contact the equipment manufacturer or a professional technician for maintenance.
Equipment Maintenance
1. Cleaning the Equipment: Regular cleaning is a fundamental step in maintenance. Use a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt from surfaces. Pay special attention to cleaning sensors and control panels, ensuring they are not contaminated or damaged.
2. Lubricating Components: Some components of the testing machine require regular lubrication to ensure proper operation. Use an appropriate lubricant for sliding parts, as recommended by the manufacturer. Ensure the amount of lubricant used is moderate; too much or too little lubricant can negatively impact performance.
3. Calibration and Verification: Regular calibration is a crucial step in ensuring accurate and reliable test results. Perform regular calibration and verification as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure measurement results are consistent with standard values. If a significant deviation is found between the measurement results and standard values, adjustments or repairs should be made promptly.
4. Inspecting the Electrical System: The electrical system is critical to its normal operation. Regularly inspect the connections and wiring of the electrical system to ensure they are not loose or damaged. Also, check the insulation performance of the electrical system to ensure it meets safety standards.
5. Regular Maintenance: In addition to the maintenance methods mentioned above, regular maintenance should also be performed. This includes inspecting mechanical components, such as the transmission system and fasteners, to ensure they are functioning properly. Simultaneously, the hydraulic system should be inspected to ensure the hydraulic fluid quality and pressure are within the normal range.
Maintenance of the flexible material compression testing machine is crucial for ensuring its normal operation and extending its service life. Regular cleaning, lubrication, calibration, and verification, along with inspection of the electrical system and regular maintenance, can maintain its good condition and ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results. Remember, following the manufacturer's recommendations and the instructions in the operating manual are important references for maintenance.
