Product catalog summary
Overview
Zwick provides modernization packages for materials testing machines, including those with low nominal loads. These modernizations are conducted at Zwick's facility in Ulm and offer several advantages such as warranty for new components, long-term service, and support.

Advantages and Features
  • Over 20 years of experience in modernizing materials testing machines.
  • Warranty for newly installed components, similar to new machines.
  • Renewed long-term service and support, with rapid assistance via Hotline.
  • TestControl II electronics meet demanding safety requirements and enable validation according to the latest quality standards.
  • Intelligent testXpert III testing software.
  • Re-use of expensive components like extensometers and specimen grips.
  • Conversion and re-calibration of existing load cells.
  • New digital DC servo drive employed.

MOPS Electronics Limitations
Future upgradeability for machines with MOPS electronics is not guaranteed. New developments in software and sensor technology are generally incompatible with MOPS. Support for Windows XP has ended, posing security risks, and only a frozen version of testXpert II is available for Windows 7. Spare-part availability and technical support are guaranteed for ten years post-discontinuation, which ended on December 31, 2016.

Technical Specifications
  • Machine electronics include synchronized module slots and PCIe slots.
  • Force measurement compliant with DIN EN ISO 7500-1, ASTM E4.
  • Measurement range up to 165% of Fmax.
  • Effective resolution in tensile/compression direction: DCSC module 19 bits, USC module 20 bits.
  • Measured value recording rate of 400 kHz and transmission rate to PC of 500 Hz (optional 2000 Hz).
  • Automatic zero-point correction and measurement signal run-time correction.
  • Interface to PC via Ethernet and Eco mode for power efficiency.
  • CE conformity according to Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.

Electrical Supply Data
  • Electrical connection: 100 to 240 V with a tolerance range of ±10%.
  • Power consumption at full load is approximately 500 VA.
  • Power frequency of 50/60 Hz.

Modernization Packages
Various zwickiLine models are available with different speeds and test-area heights, each with a specific item number for ordering.

Note
Technical changes may occur as part of ongoing development, and all data is provided at ambient temperature.

Materials testing Product Information RetroLine testControl II zwickiLine zwicki 1120 with MOPS before modernization zwicki 1120 after modernization with testControl II Advantages and features As well as providing modernization packages for large testing machines, Zwick also carries out modernizations on machines with low nominal loads. zwickiLine modernizations are performed exclusively at Zwick's premises in Ulm. MOPS electronics: Continued service reliability and future upgradeability no longer guaranteed Future upgradeability for machines with this generation of electronics can no longer be guaranteed. New devel‐ opments, for example in testxpert III testing software or modern sensor technology, cannot generally be used in conjunction with MOPS measurement and control elec‐ tronics. MOPS electronics can no longer satisfy the requirements of a number of new standards, particularly where high data acquisition rates and fast response times are required. As of 8 April 2014 Microsoft has ended support for Windows XP; this represents a rela‐ tively high potential security risk. For the use of Windows 7 in conjunction with MOPS electronics, Zwick is only able to supply a testXpert II version "frozen" in 2011 and excluded from future develop‐ ments. Zwick guarantees spare-part availability and technical service and support for ten years following discontinuation of a generation of electronics. This tenyear period ended on 31 December 2016. Zwick will endeavor to provide assistance after this date wherever possible, but obtaining spare parts and providing tech‐ nical support is becoming increasingly difficult. • over 20 years' experience in modernizing materials testing machines • warranty for newly installed components, as with new machines • renewed long-term service and support • rapid assistance via Hotline and in the event of repairs • testControl II measurement and control electronics satisfy the most demanding safety requirements • enables validation of the testing machine in accord‐ ance with the latest quality standards • intelligent testXpert III testing software • re-use of expensive components such as extensome‐ ters and specimen grips • existing load cells converted and re-calibrated • new
