A new release from Tinius Olsen makes Horizon software not only fully compliant with Windows 8, but also touchscreen enabled. This new release is free of charge to all exisiting Horizon customers, so please contact your local sales agent for update details. Horizon software is perhaps the most powerful materials testing software available today with key features that include a comprehensive test method library, and the ability to create your own test method; multiple machine control so that, as an example, a tensile tester with extensometers, impact tester and a couple of melt indexers are all controlled, data collected and analyzed from one familiar interface; tabbed test and recall area, which allows operators or managers to examine results from previous tests while performing live tests; multiple graph types can be used for each test; result and output editors allow reports to be generated according to your needs and style, they also allow results from multiple sources to condensed into one single report. |

There are various International standards followed by Tinius Olsen, you can see the list of standards in our Resource Area. Tinius Olsen offers: - Machine – H5K & H10K Tension/Compression Machine.
- Grips – 137-004, 187-005, 187-006 roller grips, to hold the specimen while testing.
- Extensometers – Accurate Measurement of Strain.
- 100R – Contact type model 100R with 10 microns resolution up to 1000mm travel & multiple gauge length capability 10 to 100mm.
- 500L – Non contacting type model 500L with 12 microns resolution, multiple gauge length 10mm up to 500mm, scan speed of 320 times per second.
- Video Extensometer – Non contacting type, for those who in addition to strain data & results, also require a video capture for post-test analysis.
- Environmental Chambers – Optional Temperature chambers in support of testing rubber at elevated & cold temperatures.
- Horizon Software – Makes it possible to conduct a range of tests to quantify the performance of rubber in tension, tear, puncture and compression modes.

Tinius Olsen can provide the solution for all your testing problems. Please visit out blog for Gripping technology. |

Tinius Olsen introduces a new line of hardness testers. These new testers comprises over nine frames, and multiple variations on those frames, that test on almost all scales, including Rockwell, Superficial Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers, Knoop, micro Vickers, macro Vickers, and Knoop; the series also includes five Universal testers. All frames feature precision loadcell based measurements rather than dead weight loading, touch screens to aid user friendliness and increase the learning curve slope, connectivity through USB and WiFi, and the ability to consolidate resultant data with other TO test machine results within the Horizon software program.
