• High-Speed 5000Hz Data Acquisition
  Peak readings for both tension and compression are accurately captured with a 5000Hz internal sampling rate.
• Outstanding Accuracy of 0.1%
• Versatile Display
  The AFG includes advanced display features: Peak readings in both tension and compression can be displayed while monitoring the live reading. The display readout can be inverted with the touch of a button. A load-bar graph on the display provides a quick visual representation of applied load to assist in preventing overload. The display is backlit for easy reading in dimly lit areas.
• Smart Sensor Recognition
  The AFG can be connected to external Quantrol Smart Force and Torque Sensors. When connected, these sensors are automatically recognized, requiring no additional calibration or setup.
• Communication with external devices
  With configurable communication protocols and outputs including RS-232, Analog and Mitotoyo for bi-directional data transfer, the AFG can control data loggers and test stands.
• Test Stand Control
  The AFG features cycle test mode where any number of cycles are executed between userconfigurable load points. Also, the AFG is able to stop or reverse the test stand based upon a load value or sample break.
• Diagnostic check of loadcell
