According to the ASTM D623 goodrich flexometer standard, EKTRON created the EKT-2002GF by combining the precise measuring system, modern auto-control technology and professional software. EKT-2002GF presents advanced improvements over the traditional Goodrich Flexometer that has been applied for years to estimate the fatigue characteristics and the rate of heat generation (built-up) of cured rubber compounds.
The improvements include the computerized control analysis system, hydraulic motor drive, P.I.D temperature control and numerous enhancements, which will heighten the precision and accuracy of this test.
