Elmendorf Tear Tester

Product line: S53984

Determines the tearing resistance of various materials. The Elmendorf tear tester has been developed specially for the paper industry and is outstanding for simplicity of operation and high measurement accuracy. The exchangeable pendulum is equipped with a pneumatic sample clamp. The initiation and return of the pendulum, as well as sample cutting is completely automatic. The device is operated via an integrated touch screen, where the test method can be selected, specific settings can be adjusted, and, after the measurement, results and statistics can be displayed. Each pendulum is supplied with the appropriate control weight so that, with the help of the service program, it can easily be checked for functionality and balance.

Test description

Up to 16 samples (acc. to standard 4 samples), prepared with a sample punch, are placed on top of another and inserted into the sample holder. On the touch screen, the number of samples inserted is selected, these are allocated to a test series (MD/CD) and the start button is pressed. The samples are automatically clamped and cut with a blade. Then the pendulum is automatically initiated and tears the sample above the cut. The pendulum is slowed, returned automatically to the start position, and the destroyed samples are released. The force required to tear the sample is displayed on the touch screen. If more than one run is carried out in MD and CD, these can be compared as statistics, and the results displayed.
