Tinius Olsen’s Epsilon ONE high-precision optical extensometer

Tinius Olsen’s Epsilon ONE high-precision optical extensometers measure axial strain with industry-leading resolution, accuracy and speed.

Innovative Instant Reset, Always On and Laser Alignment features maximize performance and increase testing throughput.

Tinius Olsen Epsilon ONE optical non-contact extensometers perform high-accuracy, high-resolution, non-contacting axial strain and displacement measurement. These extensometers are suitable for testing high-modulus materials such as metals and composites, high-elongation materials, thin or delicate specimens, cyclic fatigue, strain controlled testing, deflectometer applications, and measuring crack opening displacements. Strain or extension is measured and output in real time.

Epsilon ONE’s high resolution and ISO 0,5 / ASTM B-1 accuracy classes make it suitable for non-contact measurement of a wide range of strain values, from very small strains required to measure modulus of metals, composites, ceramics and CMCs through elastomers and everything in between.

Class-leading accuracy and resolution are achieved by Epsilon’s comprehensive optical path optimization, a unification of several optical technologies and signal processing algorithms. Ultra-high camera resolution, real-time data rates up to 3000Hz, minimization of optical error sources, and signal processing techniques provide high strain resolution and accuracy with the lowest noise. No other system on the market combines all of these technologies.
