Multi-Cavity Tension and Compression Chamber

The multi-cavity chamber is designed to hold up to 20 samples at the same time for the application of tension and /or compression loads.

The distance between the grips can be modified individually in order to adapt the length between grips to the specific dimensions of each substrate or scaffold. this is a key aspect of the chamber design since it is usaully difficult to have substrates with identical dimensions.

All components of the chambers that come into contact with culture media are autoclavable or disposable.

The multi-cavity tension grips are design for the application of tensile loads on planar substrates and samples. The TC-3 can be configured in either vertical or horizontal mode when using these grips. It can also be used for the application of compressive loads but it is advisable to configure the TC-3 system in the vertical mode when using the grips in this way to avoid sample slip.
