GoGo FCH500-200 In-Situ Tensile Stage with Multi-Mode Testing, Extreme Temperature Range (-190°C to 200°C), and Precision In-Situ Observation
The GoGo FCH500-200 is a revolutionary, fully integrated In-Situ Tensile Stage engineered for comprehensive mechanical characterization under extreme thermal conditions. This innovative system unifies tension, compression, shear, and bending testing within a single, modular platform. By simply swapping specialized, interchangeable grips and fixtures, researchers can perform multi-dimensional mechanical analysis on the same sample or material batch. Coupled with a broad temperature range from -190°C to 200°C and precise stability of ±0.1°C, this Tensile Stage enables unprecedented in-situ observation of material deformation and failure mechanisms across a vast thermal spectrum, all within a controlled atmosphere chamber.
Unified Multi-Mode Testing Platform: Eliminate the need for multiple dedicated testers. This versatile Tensile Stage allows rapid switching between tension, compression, shear, and bending modes via its modular fixture system, enabling a complete mechanical property profile from one instrument.
Extreme Temperature Mechanical Analysis: Perform tests from cryogenic to elevated temperatures with high stability. The integrated liquid nitrogen cooling and fast resistive heating (150°C/min) allow you to study the fundamental temperature-dependent behavior of polymers, composites, metals, and biomaterials.
Precision In-Situ Observation & Measurement: A large φ45mm observation window provides clear optical access for coupling with microscopes or DIC systems to correlate mechanical deformation with microstructural changes in real-time. High-accuracy force (up to 500N) and displacement measurement ensure reliable data.
Complete Digital Control & Automation: Governed by the powerful TNEX software, the entire workflow—from complex temperature programming and crosshead speed control (0.1-100mm/min) to data acquisition—is automated, ensuring reproducibility and streamlined operation.
Certified, Robust Design: Manufactured under ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certified processes, this Tensile Stage is built for durability and precision in demanding laboratory environments.

It is an essential tool for university materials science and engineering departments, industrial R&D centers, and aerospace/automotive research labs focused on material reliability and development.
What is the main benefit of a multi-mode Tensile Stage?
It provides unparalleled experimental efficiency and data consistency. You can derive a complete set of mechanical properties (tensile strength, compressive modulus, shear strength, flexural strength) from similar samples under identical thermal conditions without transferring them between different instruments.
How quickly can I switch between different testing modes?
The system features a modular design for rapid disassembly. Switching between modes (e.g., from tension to bending) is achieved by changing the dedicated grips and fixtures, a process designed to be completed in minutes.
Can I observe the sample during the test?
Yes. The primary purpose of this In-Situ Tensile Stage is to allow real-time observation. The large top window permits the use of optical microscopes, digital cameras, or digital image correlation (DIC) systems to visually monitor crack propagation, necking, or other deformation events as they happen.
How is the temperature controlled during a mechanical test?
The stage integrates a high-performance thermal platform. The TNEX software synchronizes the temperature controller (for heating/cooling profiles) with the force controller (for applying mechanical load), allowing you to run complex thermo-mechanical test protocols.
What is included in the basic system?
The package is a complete workstation, including the main tensile stage body, interchangeable grips for core modes, a temperature controller, a cooling controller, a liquid nitrogen tank, a recirculating chiller, a force controller, and the TNEX software suite.
