Helideck Micro GripTester friction coefficient test

It is specifically designed to cope with harsh offshore environments and hard-to-reach facilities.

Originally designed for use in North Sea oil and gas fields, it is now adopted as the industry standard around the world. The micro GripTester is fully compliant with the UK CAA CAP437 standard and was designed in collaboration with HCA.

Using the same lock wheel system as the GripTester MK2 and micro GripTester, it provides the helicopter deck operator with an accurate friction map to centralize maintenance and eliminate the need for nets.

Helideck miniature GripTester's light weight, rugged construction and reliable performance make it the most widely deployed push-friction tester in the world.

Software
Built in software and touchscreen display can help guide users through the testing process 
The analysis software enables helicopter deck operators to easily view the converted data for illustrating friction levels in an easy to read color coded system with parameters defined in UKCAA CAP 437. This allows for quick and easy visibility of areas with insufficient friction on the helicopter deck, and correction of specific individual areas through program maintenance

Ease of Use
The helicopter deck micro grip strength tester is operated by one person and driven by a touch screen display unit. The system easily and simply guides operators to complete a comprehensive investigation of the helicopter deck in a logical manner. This interface is controlled through a touch screen and includes all settings, including a complete help guide. Once completed, the survey data will be output in Excel format, which can be quickly transferred to a USB storage device for transmission and analysis

Design
The lightweight, sturdy structure, and reliable performance of the Helideck micro GripTester make it a widely deployed handheld friction tester in the world 
The Helideck mini GripTester can be easily folded, and products weighing only 23 kilograms can be easily transported or stored, making it a simple and efficient single person operation. It is designed to be quickly and conveniently divided into two lightweight suitcases weighing less than 12 kilograms, which can be transported by one person or placed in the smallest helicopter cargo hold. This enables the helicopter deck micro grip strength tester to be easily transported between platforms or stored compactly in a safe environment
