Portability across Computers and Windows Operating Systems
TA.XTPlus Texture Analyzer
The TA.XTPlus Texture Analyzer measures texture and quantifies the hardness, brittleness, fracturability, adhesiveness, stiffness, elasticity, Bloom strength, etc. of foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, gels, adhesives, and other chemical products. Key product features include:

Programmable Multi-Stage Testing - Multi-stage test programming facilities so the user can define individual arm movement sequences at various speeds, forces, and distances. This unique control feature enables the most complex test protocols to be established. All the TA.XT tests are provided for your convenience and can be accessed with just a few mouse clicks.

Multichannel Data Acquisition - The ability to plug-in peripheral instruments has been incorporated into the design to provide multi-channel data acquisition. This allows for many other measuring devices to be used in conjunction with the TA.XTPlus and their data simultaneously collected, such as temperature and humidity monitors.

Portability Across Computers and Windows Operating Systems - The TA.XTPlus can operate on any modern Windows operating system so it can migrate to new computers as you upgrade your computers. It communicates with your computer via the serial or USB port, so it can be used with any desktop, laptop, or other extremely small computers.

High-Speed Testing - High speed testing up to 40mm/s can be reached using 5kg, 30kg, and 50kg load cells. This will be of interest when matching specific operational conditions or imitating real-life situations.

Low-Speed Testing - The high resolution functionality from the established product range has been incorporated into the model as standard, allowing for a minimum speed of 0.01mm/s.

Constant Strain and Strain Rate - Speed can alter in proportion to the instantaneous height of the sample so that products can be tested at a constant strain rate in compression or tension.

Flash Firmware Updates - New firmware can be downloaded to the TA.XTPlus by a quick and simple software interface so that new features can be added to enhance the instrument capabilities.

Calibration - The TA.XTPlus can be calibrated with any weight up to the load cell capacity installed in the Texture Analyser to provide optimum accuracy at the force range of specific interest to the user.

Load Cell Auto Detection and Force Filtering - Load cell information such as capacity, calibration and serial numbers is stored within the load cell and automatically detected upon installation. This makes load cell changing much easier and quicker and prevents potential user errors.

Keyboard-Free Control - The TA.XTPlus does not have or use a keyboard, so the instrument takes up less bench space.
