LSI revolutionized the spring testing industry again with the FLASH series testers. Our Whisper Servo drive is a closed loop servo drive that increases rapid travel speed by 200%! Load speeds are now maintained at rapid speed to full load. It operates very quietly at any speed or load. These changes result in faster and quieter testing. Faster test speeds will result in test cycle time reductions of 30% to 400% with the largest time reductions on the heaviest springs.
