Designed in close cooperation with industry, the model 17-76 Compression Tester is rugged
enough for any production testing environment. The 17-76 is designed to provide highly accurate
measurement of compressive strength for a variety of materials.
Microprocessor control and operator-friendly software makes the 17-76 simple to operate. A new
Servo Motor design provides closed loop feedback for accurate and repeatable position control.
Ergonomic control layout maximizes the testing sequence while minimizing sample testing errors
resulting in incorrect data. The instrument meets or exceeds all international testing standards for
accuracy, precision, and parallelism.
System Software includes 8 Corrugated Test Methods for quick access including: RCT, CCT, ECT,
CMT, FCT, PAT, CLT and SQT- score test which calculates Score Ratio of scored verses unscored
samples. Test methods can be created by the operator and stored for future reference to simplify
test set up. Other compression methods include peak force, peak height and stack load.
Intuitive Software design
and touch panel allows
simple test operation.

Test screen automatically
provides result data and
statistics after each test.
