        CENTOR STAR
             Advanced graphic dynamometer

  
Click to view:   Full Specs & Lit 
The CENTOR Star is the most advanced force gauge currently available; it has become the benchmark tool for force measurement. Besides having all the functionalities of the CENTOR Easy, it also provides handy further possibilities: the graphic display shows the full graph Force = F(t).This gives you a general overview of the current test.The force gauge is able to make several types of calculations on demand (break point, first peak, average, force at time T, etc.), and some calculations can also be used to control the motorized test stand.

It is equipped with a special sensor recognition system; this means that a single instrument can read different sensors (several capacities, Force or Torque).











Furthermore, it is possible to freeze its configuration to avoid handling errors.
It is the most versatile instrument yet designed for all tests in industrial surroundings.
