All-In-One Platform

Newton is a powerful computer-based hardware, software and control platform that provides high-speed closed-loop control, command generation, transducer conditioning and data acquisition for electromechanical, electrodynamic and servohydraulic test actuators and machines.

Hardware

The smart computerized base unit is designed for load, position and strain control applications and includes a processor motherboard with a universal connector and a single daughterboard with 16 channels DIO, 8 channels of analog output, 8 channels of analog input, and 2 wheatstone bridges. An expansion card doubles the channel count and functionality.

Software

The Newton platform offers 3 software packages that were created to perform a variety of test applications. All packages are designed to be configured as entry-level or premium bundles, however, they can be customized to meet exact customer requirements.

‍Newton Universal automates electromechanical and electrohydraulic static test machines.
Newton Fatigue provides measurement and control of electrodynamic, fatigue and servohydraulic test applications.
Newton Multichannel controls up to four actuators synchronized to each other by phase or in a master-slave.

For New Test Machines & Upgrades

Compatible with any brand test machine | New or Used

Not only is Newton the best solution for all TestResources test machines but it is completely compatible with all other brands of test machines. You now have the power to upgrade existing test machines with the integration of a Newton controller and software package. You shouldn’t have to replace your test system just because it’s older and the technology is out-of-date. Newton gives you the option to simply upgrade your current electrostatic, electrodynamic or servohydraulic test machine with a new controller so that you can benefit from new technology and up-to-date innovations. It doesn’t matter if you have a TestResources test machine or another brand, we can help.
