How does a digital tensile tester work?

Gaurav Malhotra

The tensile strength of a material is the maximum amount of stress that it can take before it breaks. This is an important property to consider when manufacturing products, as it can determine the safety and reliability of the finished product. Thus, it is important for the manufacturers to conduct a tensile strength test on the materials to ensure that quality products will be delivered to the customers. Presto has designed a highly advanced tensile testing instrument digital model that has been equipped with an advanced load sensor.

This quality lab testing instrument has been designed with advanced features that will help the manufacturers in conducting tensile strength tests on the materials with ease. In this blog post, we are going to discuss brief information about digital tensile strength tester and how it works. But before, let us discuss brief information about tensile strength and its importance in evaluating product quality. So, let us get started!

What is tensile strength and why it is important for determining product quality?

When a material is subjected to a pulling force, the resulting stress on that material is termed “tensile stress.” The point at which the material fails is referred to as the “yield strength,” or “ultimate tensile strength”.

The tensile strength of a material is important for manufacturers to test because it can give them an indication of how strong and durable the material will be under conditions of use. It can also help them predict how a material will behave during different manufacturing processes.

There are many factors that can influence the tensile strength of a material, such as its composition, manufacturing process, and heat treatment. For this reason, manufacturers typically test the tensile strength of materials before using them in their products. By doing so, they can ensure that their products will be made with materials that meet their requirements for strength and durability.

The main purpose of conducting a tensile strength test on the materials is to evaluate whether the material will be strong and durable enough to resist deformation. You can read more about what happens to the materials during tensile testing.

Now, let us focus on the brief information about Presto tensile strength tester and how it works.

Evaluate tensile properties of materials with Presto tensile strength tester

It is important for manufacturers to test the tensile strength of materials because this testing can help identify potential weaknesses in a material. By knowing the tensile strength of a material, manufacturers can determine if a material is suitable for its intended purpose. Presto is Asia’s leading tensile tester manufacturer and offers the best tensile tester price, to users.

The digital model of the Presto tensile strength testing instrument comes with an advanced load sensor through advanced electronics. This highly advanced load sensor comes with a linearity feature and repeatability. This quality lab testing equipment will also let the users test the materials with high or low weight and comes with feather touch controls to accurately test the strength of the materials with ease. You can deliver guaranteed safe products with Presto tensile strength tester.

Now, let us discuss brief information about the working of this quality lab testing equipment.

Working of Presto tensile strength tester

To operate this machine accurately, you need to prepare the sample accurately. For this, you can read more about the steps of preparing the sample with a tensile strength tester. When the sample will be prepared, then you can commence the tests accurately.

For this, follow the steps mentioned below.

Set the peak load indicator value to zero and turn the rotary switch to the down direction.
This will move the lower grip in a lower direction.
Once the movement of the lower grip is in the lower direction, there will be an increase in the values shown on the load indicator.
Now turn the rotary switch to the off position after the specimen has been fractured.
Once the machine stops, the display showing the load will return to zero and the elongation display will freeze.
Press the Memory switch on the load indicator to show the peak value.
Note down the values displayed on the load indicator.

In this way, you can easily commence a tensile strength test. Some manufacturers face operating issues while commencing the test. You can easily overcome the challenges during the tensile strength tests and get highly accurate testing results.
