    Experiment Analysis Software

    Mercury RT® Industry

    View leaflet

    Deformation measurement of samples during material testing with use of the Video extensometer Mercury RT® allows applying multiple virtual probes (Movement Sensors) on markers and advanced image features to be tracked, including the natural pattern of the sample surfaces.

    Mercury RT® R&D

    View leaflet

    The Mercury RT® system enables the user to analyze the measurement either in offline or online modes, thus high-speed cameras can be used. The computation is performed in real-time, where the computed values are transferred to a connected test rig, either via analog or digital outputs.

    Typical use is the determination of various material properties (tensile tests, uni/biaxial properties, contractions), measurement of large strain rates, high-speed testing, vibration measurement, crack propagation, dynamic testing and quality control.

    Measurement Technology

    Mercury RT® Modularity

    View leaflet

    A non-contact optical measurement technology has made a major step in terms of speed and accuracy in recent years. The Mercury RT® measurement system shows in practice following benefits - it measures general deformations (strains and displacements) and any distance change between two markers set in any axis with high sub-pixel accuracy. The Mercury RT® is based on digital image correlation technology (DIC).

    The common resolution of standard system is within 500 nm and 5 µm. The system fulfils class 0.5 or B-1 of classification according to ISO 9513 and ASTM E83. In certain camera use case, the system resolution reaches the level of 100 nm - 500 nm and system fulfils the class 0.2. The strain resolution can reach 10 microstrains.

    Syncbox SC-07

    Electronic unit for controlling vibration tests, fatigue tests and vibrographic measurements

    SYNCBOX is a universal synchronization unit for controlled triggering dynamical, periodical or vibrating process with optical vibrographic system. The unit enables to synchronize up to four independent outputs with connected devices. Synchronized device is triggered by generated voltage pulse. SYNCBOX allows to generate signal with adjustable amplitude and frequency for optional frequency sweep. This feature is especially suitable for control an amplifier or a similar block for driving dynamical test machine, shaker etc. Information about parameters of captured and/or generated signals are sent via USB, Bluetooth using the API.

    • Adjustable sampling frequency (up to 5 kHz) and number of samples (max. 3000 samples)
    • Captured voltage level for each sampled value
    • Specified number of samples or infinite loop mode

    3. Periodic event triggering

    • Triggering on voltage level, minimum, maximum, skip n pulses
    • Frequency detection – mHz resolution
    • Defined maximal number of pulses per second for outputs (FPS)
    • Adjustable phase delay from detected threshold
    • Typical use for fatigue tests

    4. Videostroboscope-Vibrograph functionality

    • One trigger per period, triggers are shifted with ϕ (e.g. 5 periods for ϕ = 90°)
    • Minimal ϕ = 0,1° 3600 samples per period
    • Capturing fast periodic signals with sufficient number of periods
    • Easy setup to oversampling
