Model : PTT-560 Prima

The Tearing Strength Tester – Model No. PTT-560 Prima is a state-of-the-art testing instrument meticulously designed to determine the tearing resistance of flexible materials such as textiles, paper, packaging films, non-wovens, and similar sheet materials. It provides an accurate measure of the force required to continue a tear that has already been initiated in a specimen, helping manufacturers ensure their materials meet quality, performance, and durability standards.

What is Tearing Strength Tester – Model No. PTT-560 Prima

The Tearing Strength Tester – Model No. PTT-560 Prima is a precision-engineered testing instrument designed to measure the tearing resistance of materials such as textiles, paper, plastic films, laminates, and non-woven fabrics. Manufactured with advanced technology, this tester ensures accurate and consistent results, making it ideal for quality control, research, and material development. Its sturdy design, user-friendly interface, and superior accuracy make it a trusted choice in various industries to evaluate the durability and performance of materials under tearing stress.

How Does the Tearing Strength Tester – Model No. PTT-560 Prima Work

The PTT-560 Prima operates on the Elmendorf principle, where a pendulum is released to tear a pre-cut specimen. The instrument measures the energy absorbed during the tearing process, which indicates the material’s tearing strength.

Here’s how it works step-by-step:

1. The specimen is clamped securely between two jaws.

2. A slit is made to initiate the tear.

3. The pendulum is released, and as it swings through the specimen, it tears it completely.

4. The energy loss of the pendulum is measured and displayed digitally, representing the tearing strength of the sample.

This method provides repeatable, accurate, and quick results, making it suitable for routine laboratory and production testing.

The sample is first given a small slit. Then, the machine applies a force to tear it completely. The tester measures the amount of force needed to do this, which shows the tearing strength of the material.

The Tearing Strength Tester is used to measure how much force is needed to tear materials like fabrics, paper, and plastic films. It helps check the quality and strength of materials before they are used in production.

This model has a pneumatic clamping system that firmly holds the sample, and an automatic pendulum release for faster, smoother testing. It also has built-in calibration weights and a user-friendly display for easy operation and accurate results.

The PTT-560 Prima is made according to international testing standards, including ASTM D1424-09(2013), ASTM D689, ASTM D1922, and TAPPI T414.

You can test a wide range of materials such as woven and nonwoven fabrics, paper, cardboard, plastic films, and similar flexible materials.

It’s ideal for quality control labs, textile manufacturers, packaging companies, and research centers that need to measure the tearing strength of materials.
