Overview

winTest Analysis universal testing

software is a fully-integrated and fully-
customisable package that supports all
industry standards including ISO, ASTM
and BS EN specifications. Test types
supported include tensile, compression,
flexure, peel, tear, burst, adhesion,
shear, spring, cycle, food, GRC and
hardness. winTest Analysis is very
flexible providing simple peak force
testing or complex user-defined
multistage step testing for specialised
testing requirements.

Control
The virtual control panel allows the operator
full control of all tester functions and the
ability to conduct simple tests manually. The
control panel provides easy access to stored
test methods, system configuration and
diagnostics. The stand-alone AT models also
feature touch screen technology to provide a
very efficient and easy-to-use interface.

 Trend Analysis
Export selectable test data in ASCII
delimited format to Microsoft Excel TM or
other spreadsheet software to analyse test
result trends over a user-specified time
period or production batch. Represent test
result trends graphically using the charting
features Excel TM to review trends ‘at a
glance’ and also produce presentation-
quality trend analysis reports.

Export Test Series

Export data from a range of test series to an Excel work sheet using
search criteria such as References, Start Date and End Date. It is
also possible to export Minimum, Mean and Maximum results data
based on a periodic selection (daily, weekly, monthly etc.) to highlight
trends over a specified interval.

Standards Installer
Eliminate the need to interpret standards and manually
configure the software by using pre-defined test methods
based on an extensive range of industry standards. These can
be installed as separate modules or installed as an industry-
specific package to give you access to an impressive set of test
methods and test calculations ranging from basic tensile tests
to complex multistage tests. You can preview the test methods
to verify and ensure the correct one has been selected before
you start testing.
