Tensile compression testing machine up to 2.5KN
H2.5TMNI Tension and compression testing machine from 0.1N to 2.5KN
Richard Hess GmbH has developed the H 2.5 TMN universal testing machine with three different test chamber heights with a view to standardised material and component testing in the low-load range. As a cost-effective
low weight and high bending stiffness, the H 2.5 TMN is suitable for tensile, compression and bending tests on various materials.
bending tests on various materials. In combination with the ergonomic design and the new drive concept with stepper motors, safe and fast measurement with extremely simple operation is guaranteed both in harsh production environments and in sterile laboratories.
Key features
- Innovative brushless drive without gears
- Reduced noise pollution due to low motor speed and optimised frequency range
- Freely selectable control of crosshead travel, force and elongation
- High-precision force measurement using strain gauge force transducers
- Compact workstation design
- designed for both standing and seated work at the work table thanks to very flat lower crosshead and lateral arrangement of the electronics
- large machine base plate for mounting accessories and storing tools or samples
- Easy cleaning of the machine
Frame and test area height
The single-spindle universal testing machine H 2.5 TMN has a backlash-free ball screw in a C-frame design with spindle protection and an innovative brushless drive motor.
C-frame design with spindle protection and innovative brushless drive motor.
The newly developed testing machine is available in three different test area heights and can therefore be
optimally adapted to individual requirements.

Thickness gauge for textiles, nonwovens, geomaterials, paper, floor coverings and leather
Thickness gauge for textiles, nonwovens, geomaterials, paper, floor coverings and leather
The HDM 2010 thickness gauge is a precise, easy-to-use and professional thickness gauge for determining the thickness of various materials. The most common test materials include textiles, nonwovens, geomaterials, paper, floor coverings, leather, foils and rubber. It is manufactured by us from a stable and robust housing with encapsulation against external influences.
The DM 2010 thickness gauge is your choice if you value high measuring accuracy (up to 0.0001 mm), easy handling, fully automatic processing and objective, reproducible, non-manipulable results.
The thickness gauge can be used for different standards by using different measuring surfaces and load masses. The modular design means that customised specifications can also be implemented.
Adjustable parameters: Dwell time, opening height after the measuring process, minimum and maximum limits, number of measured values, unit (mm, inch), language (DE, ENG), colours and brightness of the display

Viewing System CMB Color Matcher Booth D65 Color
Viewing System CMB Color Matcher Booth D65 Color
Provides all features and options for a reliable communication and evaluation of colors. Available in four different sizes depending to the requiered viewing area. All CMB light cabins are compliant to the standards ASTM D1729, SAE J361, ISO 3668 and BS-950-2 and will be supplied with product conformity certificate.
5 light sources make the CMB an important tool for visual color control, color comparison and discover/avoid metamerism.
Equipped with 5 light sources: Artificial daylight D65, store light CWF or TL84, home light incandescent A, optional light source TL83/D50/LED and UV-light.
The CMB color matcher booth is also factory fitted with the ColorGuard II, which displays the current used light source, the operating time and the remaining lamp life before relamping is neccessary to keep the standard requirements.
The “Sequenz-Button” allows to start a pre-selected, automatically running sequence of all light sources for a convenient workflow.
MiniMatcher Color Viewing Systems
MiniMatcher Color Viewing Systems are ideal for color matching of cosmetics, coatings, consumer goods, ink, packaging, fashion and much more. All Mini Matcher units are compliant to the ASTM D1729 standard. Available in 5 different models with 3, up to 5 light sources.
The Mini Matcher MM-1e and MM-2e are equipped with 3 light sources – artificial daylight (D65 or D50) – store light (CWF or TL84) and home light (incandescent A). Optional UV light is also available.
The models MM-4e, MM-2436e, MM-2448e und MM-2460e are factory fitted with 5 light sources (artificial daylight D65 – store light TL84 – home light incandescent A – optional light source TL83 or CWF and UV light. The elapsed time meter displays the operating time of daylight source and is also included. The sequence apllication allows to programm a full automatic sequence of light sources in an required order, for a convenient work flow.
