After the photographs have been taken, they are automatically processed to produce mapped geometries. With completely automatic processing, editing of the digitized images is not always required. The display features include color strain distribution diagrams, section line plots, and forming limit diagrams. In addition to the powerful display features, a black and white image of the measured region is stored along with process variables input by the user, providing complete documentation of a measured part in one package. Produce stress-strain curves where specimens undergo large amounts of deformation.
Measure strains on wide tensile type specimens where the strains are non-uniform and large.
