Tensile Strength Tester
A Tensile Strength Tester is a laboratory instrument used to determine the tensile (pulling) strength of materials such as metals, plastics, rubber, textiles, paper, and composites. It measures how a material reacts when subjected to stretching forces until it breaks. The machine provides important data like tensile strength, elongation, yield point, and breaking point, which are critical for assessing the mechanical properties and quality of materials.
It generally consists of a rigid frame, load cell, grips or fixtures to hold the specimen, and a motorized system to apply force at a controlled rate. The test results are displayed digitally or via computer software for analysis.
Features:-
- Robust Construction: Heavy-duty frame ensures stability and accurate testing.
- Load Measurement: High-precision load cell for measuring force applied during the test.
- Gripping System: Interchangeable grips and fixtures to hold various shapes and sizes of specimens.
- Controlled Speed: Motorized crosshead with adjustable speed to meet different test standards (ASTM, ISO, etc.).
- Digital Display/Software: Provides real-time force, elongation, stress-strain curves, and data logging.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of materials including metals, plastics, textiles, paper, rubber, and composites.
- Safety Features: Overload protection, emergency stop, and secure clamping to prevent accidents.
- Compliance: Conforms to international testing standards (ASTM, ISO, BIS, etc.).
