HORIZONTAL TENSILE TESTER

CODE : U006
  • The Horizontal Tensile Tester is purpose-built for testing long and rigid specimens under axial tensile load. Its horizontal configuration allows the testing of elongated elements such as electrical insulators, structural rods, rebar assemblies, and other mechanical components, with test lengths up to 12 meters depending on the design.
  • Featuring dual M32 threaded ends, the machine provides flexible attachment options for customized grips and fixtures, accommodating a variety of specimen geometries and connection types required in high-voltage and structural applications.
  • The machine integrates seamlessly with ALFA’s advanced control software, which enables precise test sequencing using unlimited programmable steps, including both “LOAD” and “WAIT” commands. Engineers can configure load levels, ramping speeds, and time delays to replicate real-world loading conditions and perform complex mechanical behavior evaluations.
  • A real-time dashboard displays live values of load, stress, elongation, and deformation. Users can monitor performance parameters directly during test execution and adjust if needed using the built-in manual override controls.
  • Results are automatically documented with detailed graphs and test data. The system is equipped with integrated email functionality, allowing test reports to be instantly distributed to designated recipients.
  • The “Fast Test” feature enables one-click initiation of standard routines for streamlined operation, ideal for quality control settings or repetitive production-line testing.
  • Designed with the needs of laboratories and manufacturing quality departments in mind, this tester provides the reliability, repeatability, and accuracy essential for certifying high-performance materials such as composite or porcelain insulators under tensile stress.
