Limits (Operational)

Feature in Instron materials and structural testing systems that suspends motion or shuts 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.
