How you can easily maintain tensile strength tester?

Gaurav Malhotra

Tensile testing or tension testing is considered to be one of the most important properties of the material that is used to be performed on the material to determine the stress it can take before breaking. With the help of this high-quality lab testing equipment, one can easily measure the strength of the materials until it breaks. Thus, we have designed a tensile testing machine that will accurately test the tensile stress on the materials with its advanced load sensors. Presto is a leading manufacturer of tensile strength testers and provides you with different models of this lab testing instrument at the best and most affordable prices.

This tension testing machine will easily evaluate the tensile strength of the product and make sure that it would not get a break or deform under stress. Here in this blog, we are going to provide you with information about the tensile testing machine and how users can easily maintain this lab testing equipment efficiently. So, let’s find out the importance and use of a tensile strength tester.

What is tensile or tension testing?

Tensile testing or tension testing is considered to be one of the most common forms of mechanical testing techniques that will help manufacturers to test the durability of the materials against tensile forces. By using this method, manufacturers of various industries like plastics, rubber, or metal industry can easily make sure that their products can easily sustain the tensile forces. By performing tensile strength tests on the material manufacturers can easily ensure the quality of their materials.

Presto being the top manufacturer of tensile testing instruments, will provide you with this high-quality lab testing equipment at the best and most affordable prices. This tension testing equipment comes with an upper jaw and lower jaw to place the specimen firmly on the testing instrument. The motor will be equipped with a gearbox and lead screw management to make it easy for the users to conduct the tensile strength test on the materials.

The digital tensile strength tester designed by the experts at Presto Testing Instruments has been made with a single-column rugged structure through advanced electronics. Besides this, the safety travel switches will also be embedded in this testing instrument for over travel safety. Below we have listed the advanced features of the Presto tensile strength tester.

Tips to maintain tensile strength of materials

If you wish to make sure that your tensile strength tester will run for a longer time, then you must conduct proper care of it. To make it easy for the users to conduct the tensile strength test on the materials, we have listed some of the crucial tips that you can follow.

Ensure greasing every three months.
Ensure the Right placement of specimen during the test procedure.
Check the placement of limit switch rings before commencing the test.
Tighten the V-belt drive every three months and check it for regular wear and tear. Replaced worn-out V-belt immediately.
Top up the gear oil in the gearbox annually.
Apply grease regularly on the lead screw of vice-type grips every three months.
