CTX Texture Analyzer

A Texture Analyzer is a texture measurement system that moves in either an up or down direction to compress or stretch a sample. Force, Distance, and Time data are collected and usually presented as a curve on a graph which, when analyzed, indicates the texture of the sample.
The CTX Texture Tester is AMETEK Brookfield’s new advanced model for the compression/tension testing of materials. It brings an exciting new dimension of quick, efficient testing to busy labs that need to improve productivity while maintaining quality.

The CTX usability features
allow for easy set up to get you up and running quickly. Whether you are testing the consistency of pills and tablets, the peel ability of a yogurt lid, or the tensile strength of lipstick, our new CTX will meet your ever-growing testing needs. The addition of TexturePro Software makes the CTX ideal for R&D labs performing material evaluation/character- ization tests. It also is great in QC applications where data can be sent or saved in multiple formats.

Optional Accessories
The CTX has a wide variety of probes, fixtures for testing broad categories of packaging materials, foods of all types, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and mechanical devices. AMETEK Brookfield can also custom design a fixture and probe for most applications.
