GABOMETER – Intelligent Universal Flexometer
Accurate measurements of Heat Build-up or Blow out processes and the determination of the thermal set can be realised by our GABOMETER® system – a development based on the established Goodrich Flexometer.
Both, force and elongation controlled tests can be carried out with this modern type of Flexometer. The GABOMETER® is suitable to improve the thermal dissipation and the durability of semi-finished tire components, dampers or absorbers.
Additionally, the new generation provides the measurement of the material stiffness (E modulus, tan δ – option) and damping.
