Testimonials
"We have been using Tangent Labs for calibration for close to 10 years now. I can always rely on Tangent to remind me when my gages require calibration. Trust me; with as many gages we use, this is a valuable service! They have always been on the spot when I have questions or need advice, and are always friendly and knowledgeable."

Shimpo E-Force

The E- Force test stand features bi-directional USB which speeds data communications with almost any PC or lap top computer. The E-Force firmware displays prompts and menus that guide the user through all programs, setups and final tests. Windows like software permits users to perform standard tests, plus Pull or Push to break, Pull or Push to specified load and cycling. E-Force software provides force vs displacement or time to be displayed and the results collected in tabular and graphical format. This information can then be exported to Microsoft Office products like Excel.
The E-Force features precision servo gear head and ball screw drive for confident and complete control of the test stand.
All programming of return speed, test speed, distance/deflection set points, cycles, force set points are performed using a PC/Lap top or through the front panel control keypad. (Push and Pull to Break and Yield Tests controlled through a PC or Lap Top only.)
