Lloyd Instruments, worldwide supplier of materials testing machines and test software, has announced the release of Version 2.0 of its powerful NEXYGENPlus test and control software for its ‘Plus’ range of materials testers. The new release contains significant additions such as a Word report writer, enhancements to the tear & peel tests and friction tests, and a number of new facilities to enhance the manipulation and display of results. In addition to the new features, the new version can operate under Microsoft® Vista.

NEXYGENPlus Version 2.0 software now incorporates its own Word report generator enabling simple creation of report templates in Word format.  The Word report designer allows simple report creation including graphs, and the reports can be enhanced in Word by the operator, if required.

NEXYGENPlus provides an extensive library of pre-defined test set-ups based on international standards, and can also be used to set up routine tests or create an advanced multi-stage test.

A number of new facilities have been introduced to make operation quicker and easier. Switching between graphs and switching to the batch table have been simplified as well as switching between batches if multiple batches are opened.

Lloyd Instruments manufactures materials testing machines from 1kN up to 300kN max force.
