The 4000 uses patented frictionless load cartridges and air bearing technologies which ensure maximum accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility. Cartridges for different applications are readily exchanged. Many functions are automated and there are sophisticated electronic and software controls.

The DAGE 4000 is the centrepiece of the bondtester range. The machine is multi-purpose, capable of performing all pull and shear applications. The 4000 can be configured as a simple wire pull tester, and upgraded to provide ball shear, die shear, bump pull, vectored-pull, or tweezer pull tests.
