ABSTRACT:
A system for rapid, easy testing of elastic components under compression or tension is disclosed. The system comprises a force measurement apparatus having a device which applies either a compression or tension force to the elastic component. The device measures the force applied to the component and transmits this information to an interface unit. A transducer, which is detachably connected to the component, measures the deflection in the metal and transmits this information to the interface unit. The interface unit comprises computer hardware and software which changes the analog signals it receives to digital signals and transmits these to a personal computer. The computer controls the test and displays the test results.
