General Safety Precautions

Materials testing systems are potentially hazardous.

Materials testing involves inherent hazards from high forces, rapid motions, and
stored energy. You must be aware of all moving and operating components in the
testing system that are potentially hazardous, particularly force actuators or a
moving crosshead.

Carefully read all relevant manuals and observe all Warnings and Cautions. The
term Warning is used where a hazard may lead to injury or death. The term Caution
is used where a hazard may lead to damage to equipment or to loss of data.

Instron products, to the best of its knowledge, comply with various national and
international safety standards, in as much as they apply to materials and structural
testing. We certify that our products comply with all relevant EU directives (CE
mark).

Because of the wide range of applications with which our instruments are used, and
over which we have no control, additional protection devices and operating
procedures may be necessary due to specific accident prevention regulations, safety
regulations, further EEA directives or locally valid regulations. The extent of our
delivery regarding protective devices is defined in your initial sales quotation. We
are thus free of liability in this respect.

At your request, we will gladly provide advice and quotations for additional safety
devices such as protective shielding, warning signs or methods of restricting access
to the equipment.

The following pages detail various general warnings that you must heed at all times
while using materials testing equipment. You will find more specific Warnings and
Cautions in the text whenever a potential hazard exists.

Your best safety precautions are to gain a thorough understanding of the equipment
by reading your instruction manuals and to always use good judgement.

It is our strong recommendation that you should carry out your own product safety
risk assessment.

Preliminary Pages

Warnings

Hazard - Press the Emergency Stop button whenever you consider that an
unsafe condition exists.

The Emergency Stop button removes hydraulic power or electrical drive from the
testing system and brings the hazardous elements of the system to a stop as quickly
as possible. It does not isolate the system from electrical power, other means are
provided to disconnect the electrical supply. Whenever you consider that safety may
be compromised, stop the test using the Emergency Stop button. Investigate and
resolve the situation that caused the use of the Emergency Stop button before you
reset it.

Flying Debris Hazard - Make sure that test specimens are installed correctly
in grips or fixtures in order to eliminate stresses that can cause breakage of
grip jaws or fixture components.

Incorrect installation of test specimens creates stresses in grip jaws or fixture

components that can result in breakage of these components. The high energies
involved can cause the broken parts to be projected forcefully some distance from
the test area. Install specimens in the center of the grip jaws in line with the load
path. Insert specimens into the jaws by at least the amount recommended in your
grip documentation. This amount can vary between 66% to 100% insertion depth;
refer to supplied instructions for your specific grips. Use any centering and
alignment devices provided.

Hazard - Protect electrical cables from damage and inadvertent

disconnection.

The loss of controlling and feedback signals that can result from a disconnected or
damaged cable causes an open loop condition that may drive the actuator or
crosshead rapidly to its extremes of motion. Protect all electrical cables, particularly
transducer cables, from damage. Never route cables across the floor without
protection, nor suspend cables overhead under excessive strain. Use padding to
avoid chafing where cables are routed around corners or through wall openings.

iv M16-16905-EN
 Preliminary Pages

Warnings

High/Low Temperature Hazard - Wear protective clothing when handling

equipment at extremes of temperature.

Materials testing is often carried out at non-ambient temperatures using ovens,

furnaces or cryogenic chambers. Extreme temperature means an operating
temperature exceeding 60 °C (140 °F) or below 0 °C (32 °F). You must use
protective clothing, such as gloves, when handling equipment at these temperatures.
Display a warning notice concerning low or high temperature operation whenever
temperature control equipment is in use. You should note that the hazard from
extreme temperature can extend beyond the immediate area of the test.

Crush Hazard - Take care when installing or removing a specimen, assembly,

structure, or load string component.

Installation or removal of a specimen, assembly, structure, or load string component

involves working inside the hazard area between the grips or fixtures. When
working in this area, ensure that other personnel cannot operate any of the system
controls. Keep clear of the jaws of a grip or fixture at all times. Keep clear of the
hazard area between the grips or fixtures during actuator or crosshead movement.
Ensure that all actuator or crosshead movements necessary for installation or
removal are slow and, where possible, at a low force setting.

Hazard - Do not place a testing system off-line from computer control without
first ensuring that no actuator or crosshead movement will occur upon
transfer to manual control.

The actuator or crosshead will immediately respond to manual control settings

when the system is placed off-line from computer control. Before transferring to
manual control, make sure that the control settings are such that unexpected
actuator or crosshead movement cannot occur.

Robotic Motion Hazard - Keep clear of the operating envelope of a robotic

device unless the device is de-activated.

The robot in an automated testing system presents a hazard because its movements
are hard to predict. The robot can go instantly from a waiting state to high speed
operation in several axes of motion. During system operation, keep away from the
operating envelope of the robot. De-activate the robot before entering the envelope
for any purpose, such as reloading the specimen magazine.

Preliminary Pages

Warnings

Hazard - Set the appropriate limits before performing loop tuning or running
waveforms or tests.

Operational limits are included within your testing system to suspend motion or
shut off the system when upper and/or lower bounds of actuator or crosshead travel,
or force or strain, are reached during testing. Correct setting of operational limits by
the operator, prior to testing, will reduce the risk of damage to test article and
system and associated hazard to the operator.

Electrical Hazard - Disconnect the electrical power supply before removing

the covers to electrical equipment.

Disconnect equipment from the electrical power supply before removing any
electrical safety covers or replacing fuses. Do not reconnect the power source while
the covers are removed. Refit covers as soon as possible.

Rotating Machinery Hazard - Disconnect power supplies before removing the

covers to rotating machinery.

Disconnect equipment from all power supplies before removing any cover which
gives access to rotating machinery. Do not reconnect any power supply while the
covers are removed unless you are specifically instructed to do so in the manual. If
the equipment needs to be operated to perform maintenance tasks with the covers
removed, ensure that all loose clothing, long hair, etc. is tied back. Refit covers as
soon as possible.

Hazard - Shut down the hydraulic power supply and discharge hydraulic
pressure before disconnection of any hydraulic fluid coupling.

Do not disconnect any hydraulic coupling without first shutting down the hydraulic
power supply and discharging stored pressure to zero. Tie down or otherwise secure
all pressurized hoses to prevent movement during system operation and to prevent
the hose from whipping about in the event of a rupture.

Hazard - Shut off the supply of compressed gas and discharge residual gas
pressure before you disconnect any compressed gas coupling.

Do not release gas connections without first disconnecting the gas supply and
discharging any residual pressure to zero.

vi M16-16905-EN
 Preliminary Pages

Warnings

Explosion Hazard - Wear eye protection and use protective shields or screens
whenever any possibility exists of a hazard from the failure of a specimen,
assembly or structure under test.

Wear eye protection and use protective shields or screens whenever a risk of injury
to operators and observers exists from the failure of a test specimen, assembly or
structure, particularly where explosive disintegration may occur. Due to the wide
range of specimen materials, assemblies or structures that may be tested, any hazard
resulting from the failure of a test specimen, assembly or structure is entirely the
responsibility of the owner and the user of the equipment.

Hazard - Ensure components of the load string are correctly pre-loaded to

minimize the risk of fatigue failure.

Dynamic systems, especially where load reversals through zero are occurring, are at
risk of fatigue cracks developing if components of the load string are not correctly
pre-loaded to one another. Apply the specified torque to all load string fasteners and
the correct setting to wedge washers or spiral washers. Visually inspect highly
stressed components such as grips and threaded adapters prior to every fatigue test
for signs of wear or fatigue damage.

Overview
A video extensometer is designed to accurately measure specimen strain during a materials
test without the need to contact the specimen.

Advantages of the non-contacting measuring process include no mechanical influence on the

specimen, ease of use and reproducibility.

The principle of the video extensometer is based upon accurate detection of the gauge length
markers using a high resolution digital video camera.

There are two models of the second generation Instron video extensometer; the AVE2
(Advanced Video Extensometer) and the SVE2 (Standard Video Extensometer).

AVE2 includes:

• CDAT (Constant Density Air Tube) system of fans to control air flow between the
camera and specimen and minimize optical distortion caused by air currents, enhancing
the measurement noise performance
• an option to add transverse strain measurement
• an option to add DIC (Digital Image Correlation) capability

SVE2 does not include the CDAT system and the transverse strain measurement and DIC
options are not available.

Initial installation
Initial installation is performed by an Instron service engineer and includes the following:

• adaptation of the connections to the controller in the testing machine; if you want to use
the extensometer on more than one testing machine, these modifications must be
performed on each machine. For example:
• 5900 systems - adapt the Strain 1 connector on the 5900 controller to connect to the
encoder in the testing machine.
• 8800/ElectroPuls systems - install one (axial) or two (axial and transverse) encoder
SCMs to the connectors on the controller.
• installation of the AVE2 or SVE2 onto the vertical post assembly,
• installation of the post assembly and mounting bracket onto the testing machine
• verification of the extensometer

Moving between machines

You can move the extensometer between different testing machines by removing the entire
assembly of extensometer and mounting bracket and mounting it on another machine of the
same type. Different testing machines may require different mounting brackets and various
spacers, although the vertical post assembly that supports the extensometer is common to all
machines. Additional accessories, such as a temperature chamber, may require different post
assemblies. The following sections describe the installation on a number of different testing
machines. Installations on older or non-Instron machines may involve custom mounting
schemes and are not covered here.

Overview
The most common method of marking uses white or black ink dots. Marking jigs for various
gauge lengths are provided with the extensometer. White and black marking pens are also
provided.

When deciding how to mark your specimens, you must consider:

• the mark material - inks and tape dots both contain solvents that may affect the strength
of the specimen
• the mark color - the color of the mark must contrast with the color of the specimen as
seen by the camera, which uses polarized light
• in most cases, white marks produce the best results, even on specimens that appear
white to the human eye
• white marks produce the best results on reflective metal specimens and dark color
plastic specimens
• if white causes problems, the best alternative is black, provided it contrasts
sufficiently with the specimen background color, as seen by the camera, which uses
polarized light
• for most applications, you should not use silver marks as these appear black to the
camera, although they may be effective on white specimens if white marks cause
problems
• the shape and size of the mark must be compatible with the profile of the specimen
• applying the marks to the specimen so that they stay in place and are visible to the
camera throughout the test

4-1
Chapter: Mark specimens

If you are testing to a particular standard, gauge length and gauge width are often pre-
defined and you must apply marks as specified in the standard.

Marking tips
• Test your specimens as soon as possible after applying the marks to minimize the
possible effects of solvent from inks or adhesive on the specimen properties
• If your specimen breaks at the point where the mark is applied, consider an alternative
marking method
• If your specimen undergoes long extension during testing, make sure that the marks are
still visible at the end of the test

Dots must be used if you are measuring both axial and transverse strain. Lines can be used
for axial measurement only.

Applying ink dots

The minimum recommended diameter for ink dots is 2mm. The maximum recommended
diameter is 4mm.

The marking jigs provided are designed to be used with the marking pens provided.These
pens have spring-loaded tips that prevent too much pressure being applied which would
accelerate damage to the tip. Each jig has several sets of holes arranged to produce 3mm
diameter dots at commonly-used axial gauge lengths and transverse gauge widths.

1. Ensure that the marking jig is clean and has no residue of a previous ink color that could
cause cross-contamination and reduce contrast between the dot and the specimen.
If you are continuously swapping between black and white ink, it is recommended that
you purchase an additional marking jig.
2. Locate the holes in the jig that match your chosen gauge length.
3. Select the appropriate ink color.
4. Make sure the specimen is clean and free from grease.
5. Lay the specimen on a flat surface and position the jig over it so that your chosen holes
are located an equal distance from the center line of the specimen. The jig is shaped into
sections of different widths to aid positioning on the center line on specimens of
different widths. Make sure the jig is positioned so that the printed text on the jig is

4-2 M16-16905-EN
 Troubleshooting ink dots

readable and the countersink on the holes is towards the specimen surface. The
countersink prevents the ink from running between the jig and the specimen.
6. Apply the ink through the holes making sure that the dots are round and of an even
density:
a. Keep the marking pen upright.
b. Apply minimum pressure to the pen.
c. Run the pen around the edge of the hole twice, then fill in the center.
d. Apply all the marks without disturbing the jig.
e. Apply sufficient ink to make a dense mark but not so much that the ink runs.
7. Carefully remove the jig by lifting it vertically, taking care not to smudge the marks.
8. When the ink is dry, inspect the dots to make sure they are:
• round, without any wicking or bleeding
• opaque and of an even density

Troubleshooting ink dots

• Irregular dots can be caused by:
• too much or too little ink
• grease or dirt on the specimen
• Smudged dots can be caused by:
• too much ink
• careless removal of the jig after marking
• touching the mark before the ink is dry
• Bleeding or wicking of the ink dots can be caused by:
• bleeding can occur when a specimen surface that has been prepared using an
abrasive causes the wet ink to be drawn, by capillary action, into the grooves made
by the abrasive.
• wicking can occur when testing woven specimens and the wet ink is drawn, by
capillary action, into the fibers of the specimen.
If bleeding or wicking is a consistent problem, you should consider using tape dots.
• Loss of detection of ink dots during tests can be caused by:

Product Support: www.instron.com 4-3

Chapter: Mark specimens

• change of specimen color during testing so that contrast between the dot and the
specimen is lost - consider using a different ink color
• fading of the dot due to excessive extension during the test - consider using tape
dots
• flaking of the ink from the specimen - make sure the ink is compatible with the
specimen material and consider testing the specimen while the ink is still wet
• the dot moves outside the field of view of the lens because specimen extension was
larger than expected - use a lens with a larger field of view

Warning

Set appropriate mechanical limits on the load frame before starting any tests. If you
are using an 8800 or ElectroPuls system, you set these limits via the Console
software.

If the extensometer loses track of the marks on the specimen during a test,
unexpected crosshead or actuator movement can occur. It is very important that you
limit any such movement.

The AVE2 and SVE2 can be used on a wide range of testing machines. Newer machines, in
combination with Bluehill® 3 software, are designed to handle the loss of strain signals due
to loss of marks in a controlled manner. If you are not using Bluehill® 3 software or are
using an older testing machine, these systems may not be present. It is therefore imperative
that you set these limits.

Extensometer lenses
Most users can do all of their testing using the standard 16mm focal length lens.

Lenses of different focal lengths are available for use with the video extensometer. The field
of view achieved by a particular lens depends upon:

• focal length of the lens

• distance between the lens and the specimen

5-1
Chapter: Set up and run tests

On any one testing machine, the distance between the lens and the specimen is fixed, but
that distance is different for different testing machines.

To examine and, if necessary, change the lens:

1. Remove the lens cover (AVE2 only; there is no lens cover on the SVE2) by gently
pulling it away from the lens. You can now read the focal length of the lens printed on
the body.
2. If you need to change the lens, unscrew the lens from the extensometer and store it in the
case provided.
3. Screw in the new lens and focus it.
4. Replace the lens cover (AVE2 only).
5. If you have changed the lens, recalibrate the extensometer.

Setting up the Load String

Make sure the orientation is correct with respect to the camera on the video extensometer.
You will probably need to rotate the load cell mounting, any adapters, and the base adapter
so that the calibration bar and the specimen are facing the camera.

5-2 M16-16905-EN
 Setting up Bluehill® 3 Software

Caution

As far as possible, keep the extensometer away from exposure to conductive dust or
debris, from breaking carbon fiber specimens, for example.

Conductive dust or debris may cause a malfunction in the extensometer electronics. If this is
likely to be a problem, you are advised to surround the load string with a transparent
protective shield, separating it from the extensometer.

Setting up Bluehill® 3 Software

References in Bluehill® 3 help to the “video extensometer” are applicable only to the older
AVE and SVE instruments, they do not apply to AVE2 and SVE2.

For example, Bluehill® 3 help states that the video extensometer must use the two specially-
created strain transducer configurations, video axial strain and video transverse strain. This
is true for the older video extensometers, but is not true for AVE2 and SVE2; Bluehill® 3
does not create these configurations.

5900 Series testing systems

• The extensometer is connected to the encoder via the Strain 1 connector which
processes both axial and transverse measurements, if you have purchased the additional
transverse option (AVE2 only; transverse strain measurement is not available for the
SVE2).
• The extensometer operates with Bluehill® 3 software exactly like an equivalent clip-on
extensometer, all measurements and control capabilities are available. You must use
Bluehill® V3.62 or later.
• Bluehill® 3 software recognizes the extensometer; there is no need to make any
selections in the Admin tab.

3300 and 5500 Series testing systems

• The extensometer is connected to the encoder via the Strain 1 connector for axial
measurements only, if you have purchased the transverse strain option an additional
connector connects to the Strain 2 connector to measure transverse strain via analog
signals.
• The extensometer operates with Bluehill® software exactly like an equivalent clip-on
extensometer, all measurements and control capabilities are available.You must use
Bluehill® V3.62 or later.

you need to make the appropriate selection in the Hardware and Software options
screen in the Admin tab.

8800 or ElectroPuls testing systems using the 8800MT controller

• Connection details depend on the frame and system configuration. For details refer to
the 8800/ElectroPuls Console online help.
• The extensometer operates with Bluehill® software exactly like an equivalent clip-on
extensometer, except that strain control is not available.You must use Bluehill® V3.62
or later, Console V8.9 or later.
• Bluehill® 3 software recognizes that an extensometer is connected to the encoder but
you need to make the appropriate selection in the Hardware and Software options

• Use 8800/ElectroPuls Console to set limits on the extensometer strain channels before
running a test. You cannot set limits on 8800 or ElectroPuls systems in Bluehill® 3
software.

8800 or ElectroPuls testing systems using the 8800T or 8800D controller

• The extensometer is connected to an analog SCM on the controller via a BNC adapter
cable and uses the ±10V signal for calibration. Axial and transverse strain require two
SCMs and two adapter cables.
• Manually calibrate the extensometer using the 8800/ElectroPuls Console Calibration
wizard in conjunction with the Analog Outputs tab in the Instron Video Extensometer
application. As part of the manual calibration, set the transducer type to Strain
(Calibration wizard > Transducer details screen). This ensures that it is recognized as a
strain transducer in Bluehill® 3 software. You must use Bluehill® V3.62 or later,
Console V8.9 or later.
• Use 8800/ElectroPuls Console to set limits on the extensometer strain channels before
running a test. You cannot set limits on 8800 or ElectroPuls systems in Bluehill® 3
software.

 Setting up non-Bluehill® 3 systems

Warning

When using the 8800T or 8800D controller, the AVE2 or SVE2 is intended for strain
monitoring only. It is not suitable for use as the controlling channel when conducting
a test in strain control.

Other Systems

The extensometer is connected via analog inputs and uses the ±10V or ±5V signal for
calibration. Install and use the Instron Video Extensometer application to interact with the
extensometer.

Setting up non-Bluehill® 3 systems

If the AVE or SVE is installed on a testing machine that is not running Bluehill® 3 software,
you interact with the AVE or SVE through the Instron Video Extensometer application.

• The default system of units is SI. You can change the system of units in the Admin tab.
• The video extensometer communicates with the testing machine via the analog output
connections. You will need to perform the calibration procedure for a device connected
to the analog inputs on your testing machine then enter the full-scale value for axial and
transverse strain in the Analog Outputs tab in the Instron Video Extensometer
application.

Startup and Calibration

You should calibrate the extensometer after switching it on and also after you change
anything in the setup, for example, if you change a lens.

1. Move the crosshead so that the calibration will be performed in the same test space as
the specimen test.
2. Switch on the video extensometer by pressing the power button on the front. The light
bar illuminates.
3. If you are running Bluehill® 3 software, start Bluehill® 3 and select in the
console to open the video extensometer dialog.
4. If you are running the Instron Video Extensometer application, open the application.
The video extensometer dialog displays.

Product Support: www.instron.com 5-5

Chapter: Set up and run tests

5. Hold the calibration bar so that the matrix of dots faces towards the extensometer and
install it in the grips. An image of the calibration bar should appear in the image
window. Make sure the calibration bar is vertical and centralized in the image window.

If you are using the 6mm lens, you must use two calibration bars to accommodate the large
field of view. Install one calibration bar in the upper grip and the other in the lower grip.

6. Position the extensometer so that it views the entire calibration bar; you can slide it up
and down on the mounting bar. Clamp it when you have established the correct position.
7. Select Calibrate... to open the calibration dialog.
8. Remove the red lens cover (AVE2 only; there is no lens cover on the SVE2) by gently
pulling it away from the lens.
9. Follow the instructions in the calibration dialog to select and focus the lens.
a. Select the lens that you have installed from the drop-down list.
b. Adjust the focus of the lens until the check mark appears, then lock the thumb screw.
10. Replace the red lens cover (AVE2 only).
11. In the image window in the calibration dialog, drag the dotted center line so that it is in
the center of the dot matrix pattern.
12. Draw a box around the area of the dot matrix that you want to calibrate. The border of
the box displays green.

If you are using the 6mm lens, draw the box so that it includes both calibration bars.

13. Select Calibrate.

14. When calibration is complete, a yellow box appears indicating the calibrated area and
the calibration status updates.
15. Select OK to accept the calibration and close the calibration dialog.
16. To check the calibration, draw a box around two of the dots close to the center of the
matrix and select Measure. A gauge length of 6mm ±0.015mm should display. Repeat
this for two more sets of dots close to the top and bottom of the calibrated area.
17. Remove the calibration bar from the grips.

You are now ready to run tests.

Once calibrated, the video extensometer behaves like any other transducer when you operate
it with Bluehill® software. For full details, refer to the Bluehill® 3 online help and reference.
A summary of possible setup steps using Bluehill® software and an AVE2 on a 5900 testing
machine is as follows:

1. Go to Measurements > Setup and create a physical strain measurement using Strain
1 as the transducer configuration. The video extensometer is always connected to Strain
1. You can name the measurement AVE2.
2. Go to Test Control > Strain and choose the new AVE2 measurement as the primary
source.
3. Go to Test Control > Pre-Test and enable auto-balance for the AVE2.
4. Setup the workspace to your requirements. You will probably want to assign one of the
live displays to show AVE2 strain.

Using Instron Video Extensometer software

Follow the appropriate procedures in your software for running a test using a calibrated
strain transducer.
