Elmendorf Tear Tester 83-76 TMI INDUSTRIAL PHYSICS
Elmendorf Tear Tester 83-76 TMI, for measuring the force required for tearing flexible packaging materials.
SKU: 83-76
Description
Elmendorf Tear Tester 83-76 TMI determines the force required to continue the tearing of an initial cut in sheet materials such as paper, plastic film, textile, and non-woven. The Elmendorf Tear Tester is an automated tear tester equipped with an optical encoder for measuring the angular position of the pendulum during tearing and converting this measurement to tear units.
A large, full-color touchscreen display with intuitive, easy-to-use software provides a revolutionary new approach to testing and data review. It conforms with the standards:
- TAPPI T-414
- ASTM D1922, D1424, D689
- ISO 1974
- CPPA d.9
- AS/NZ 1301.400S
- BS 4468
- SCAN P-11
Simple, two-button operation of the pneumatic clamp and swing ensures efficient testing. Total clamping width of 76 mm meets constant radius and rectangular film specimen dimensions. A universal pendulum with quick change hardware and weights provides multiple testing options. The required calibration weights are also included. After performing a test, the operator can save all curve and test result data directly to an external PC with optional GraphMaster™ software.
