Description
This way you can determine the bending moment, bending angle and bending energy. Furthermore, it’s possible to identify the stage of damage caused by decay as well as the nature of its effects.
The corresponding Fractometer table makes possible a quick determination and comparison of the wood quality. This way, you can evaluate the stability and wood characteristics of a tree. The given values are only standard values. The tree must always be seen as a whole.
Application areas
- Measurement of the bending strength of wood cores
- Evaluation of decayed wood by determination stiffness and fractures strength
- Detection of decay and lignin destruction
- Brown rot is indicated by small bending angles and low fracture strength
- At early stages of decay lignin destruction is indicated by large bending angles and a rather normal fracture strength (some types of whit rot)
Delivery contents (standard)
- Fractometer I
- Leather pouch

We have been cooperating very successfully and quality oriented with IML GmBh for several years. Problems?! There are none, because the team of IML is very friendly and helpful when ordering and in any technical direction to their products. They are up to the smallest detail. Definitely on a level 10 in a rating of 1-10. Thank you very much for the many years of good cooperation.
I previously worked with the IML-RESI B400 for years. This device worked flawlessly, due to the year of manufacture it had a rather Russian design. I am glad to have owned the B400 - so I can enjoy the advantages of years of development for the new PD-400: faster, much lighter, more compact, almost self-explanatory menu and eternally lasting battery! You can tell there's a lot of attention to pragmatic detail here!
The many years of trustful cooperation in the segment of wood testing systems is of great importance on the part of FA. IML GmbH is characterized by high product quality and product development. In addition, the technical support is traget-oriented (very important for us), which is optimally implemented by the systematic approach of the respective employees. Questions, suggestions and if occurring 'problems', are immediately provided with a solution. In short, we feel that we are in "the best of hands". Many thanks!
