Mecmesin Emperor software

Mecmesin Emperor software for tension and compression testing has been designed for use in quality control laboratories where the mechanical properties of manufactured products need to be assessed on a routine basis.

Emperor controls MultiTest-i test stands, which, when combined, enable the user to create test programs via computer. Loadcells mounted on the MultiTest-i test frame download test data synchronously at a rate of up to 2000 times/s, directly to a PC via the serial port. This ensures high accuracy of testing particularly where peak loads are being recorded.

Emperor software combines ease of use with programming tools making it suitable for test routines in the laboratory.

There are two modules within Emperor. The force gauge emulator is a virtual instrument console which enables specimens to be tested at fixed speed. The maximum tensile and compressive loads sustained can be displayed, and a simple test report can be printed. The emulator is entirely mouse driven, thus eliminating the need for a keyboard to be located in the test area.

The programmed testing module enables control and analysis procedures to be developed via Emperor’s user-friendly Windows interface. Test data can be graphically interrogated, replayed, assessed against pass/fail criteria, compiled into batch reports and exported to other software, eg, spreadsheets or SPC package.
