WEATHERING TESTING

Atlas Material Testing Tech- nology, a world leader in weath- ering testing and technology, has made state-of-the-art enhance- ments to the Xenotest Alpha, renamed Alpha+, to improve ease of use and ins t rument control. Equipped with convenient touch- screen display, weathering testing now can be programmed and per- formed with a touch of a button. The actual test s tate and the graphical progress of test parame- ters can be easily read off the full- color display. With the PC interface RS 232, the USB slave port, and the SmartMedia card, data can be easily transferred.
