MODEL TK-252C/MK

BONE STRENGTH TESTER FOR MONKEYS


 

Muromachi Bone Strength Tester TK-252C/MK has been designed for the precise measurement of the bone strength of the monkeys, however, it can be used for the rats and mice by replacing the sensors and sample holders.. It is a space-efficient desk top model that has not ever commercially been available.

Main Features


1. Two types of tests------- 1) Bending  2) Compressing of Lumber Vertebrae can be performed with the standard system just by replacing sensors and sample holders.

2. The information on the measurement can be entered by the keyboard of the Controller and the test results will be graphically displayed on the screen of the Controller and then printed out by the built-in rapid thermal printer.

3.  RS232C interface is provided on the rear panel of the Controller so that the data obtained can be transfered to a personal computer. Data Collection Software DCS-252C (Windows Version)  is supplied with the instrument as standards.

4. The operation is quite simple and so even personnel not experienced in this test can use it with ease.
