RTC-9001 Real Time Controller
Download the brochure: Controller for Fatigue Test
EnginLAB designed the RTC-9001, Real Time Controller, keeping in mind the need for laboratories and industries to easily perform static and fatigue test with a very powerful and cost effective system.
The RTC-9001 electronic can control any actuator equipped with a servo-valve or a servo-drive with analog input control in the range of ±10V, ±5V, 0-10V.
The Software is powerful and user friendly, check it on EnginLAB YouTube channel. The RTC-9001 training is completed in less than an hour.
The software is also available for torque test.
