Lloyd Instruments LS5 Plus Standard

Description

Lloyd Instruments LSPlus single-column materials testing machine for tensile, compression and cycling tests. Uses high-accuracy interchangeable YLC Series load cells.

Ideal for plastics, rubber, films, packaging and high-elongation materials. Available in standard, extended and pogo configurations. Works with NEXYGENPlus software.

Typical applications: At 5 kN, the LS5 SH-230V handles tensile and compression testing of films, elastomers, and packaging materials where high elongation and low force are the priority.
