tearpaper and cardboardfor film

FTS-01 Elmendorf Tearing Tester is designed for the tearing test of films, sheets, flexible PVC, PVDC, waterproof films, woven materials, polypropylene, polyester, paper, cardboard, textiles and nonwovens. Technical Features -Controlled by computer with automatic and electronic measurement which is convenient for the operation -Pneumatic specimen clamping and automatic release of pendulum could avoid the system error effectively -Equipped with pendulums of multiple capacities, maximum up to 6400gf -Multiple unit display of experimental results -Computer assisted horizontal adjustment system could maintain the instrument optimum status -Equipped with RS232 port which is convenient to the data transmission and external connection Test Principle Lift the pendulum up to a certain height to give it an initial potential energy. The pendulum tears the specimen while swinging down. Computer calculates the decreased energy caused by tearing to obtain the required force for tearing.
