Model : TTM-D (as per capacity)

An impact tester is an advanced testing tool used to test the toughness and resistance to impact of materials by measuring the absorbed energy at fracture under sudden or dynamic loading conditions. It measures well the ability of a material to resist shock or impact loads, which is important in determining performance and longevity in severe industrial environments. Standard configurations are pendulum and drop-weight systems, while Charpy and Izod impact testers are used most commonly. The instruments provide consistent quality control and material certification across industries like automotive, aerospace, construction, and manufacturing.

 

Overview

A tensile strength testing machine is a specialized apparatus designed to evaluate a material’s behavior when subjected to tension. It measures key material properties such as tensile strength, elongation, yield point, and modulus of elasticity. During a test, the specimen is securely gripped and subjected to a controlled tensile load until failure occurs. The resulting deformation data reveals essential insights into the material’s quality, strength, and performance characteristics, ensuring reliability and compliance with required specifications.

How Does a Tensile Strength Testing Machine Work?

The tensile testing machine applies a steadily increasing tensile load to a specimen that is clamped between two precision grips. As the load increases, the machine continuously records the applied force and the corresponding elongation of the specimen using highly accurate sensors.

The collected data is used to generate a stress-strain curve, which provides detailed mechanical properties such as:

  • Ultimate tensile strength (UTS)
  • Yield strength
  • Elongation at break
  • Modulus of elasticity

By analyzing these parameters, manufacturers and engineers can assess the quality, performance, and conformity of materials, ensuring safe and efficient product design.

Benefits of Using a Tensile Strength Testing Machine

1. Accurate Material Characterization

The machine delivers precise measurements of mechanical properties like tensile strength, elongation, and elasticity. This helps manufacturers understand how materials behave under load, ensuring safe and reliable design and production.

2. Quality Assurance

Before materials enter production, tensile testing confirms they meet defined quality standards. This process detects potential defects, improving consistency, reliability, and reducing failure risks across manufacturing operations.

3. Product Development Support

During R&D, tensile testing helps evaluate new materials and improve existing formulations. Insights from these tests allow engineers to refine designs, optimize performance, and meet strict durability requirements.

4. Compliance with International Standards

Presto tensile strength testers comply with ASTM, ISO, and other global standards, ensuring your products meet certification and customer requirements for performance and safety.

5. Failure Analysis and Troubleshooting

By examining how and when a material fails, tensile testing assists in identifying weak points and improving material formulations. This minimizes product recalls, warranty claims, and production costs.

Applications

Metal and Alloy Testing

Used to determine the tensile strength, ductility, and elasticity of metals and alloys. Ensures the safety and performance of materials used in construction, automotive, and aerospace applications.

Plastic and Polymer Testing

Evaluates tensile properties of plastic sheets, films, and molded parts, helping manufacturers ensure flexibility, durability, and performance in both processing and end-use conditions.

Textile and Fabric Testing

Determines the tensile strength and elongation of yarns, fabrics, and fibers, ensuring products meet required standards for durability and comfort.

Rubber and Elastomer Testing

Assesses the stretch, strength, and resilience of rubber materials—crucial for components like tires, seals, and gaskets that require elasticity under load.

Composite Material Testing

Measures the load-bearing capacity and bonding integrity of composites used in aerospace, sports, and automotive industries, ensuring lightweight materials meet structural performance demands.

Research and Development

Tensile testers are essential in R&D for developing innovative materials, improving formulations, and validating performance parameters before commercialization.

It means the maximum load (capacity) that the machine is rated to handle is about 2,500 kg (or 2.5 tonnes) in tensile testing mode. This ensures that samples up to that maximum force can be tested safely.

It uses the Constant Rate of Traverse (CRT) principle — a fixed speed of movement of the cross-head which applies the tensile force to the specimen between two grips.

This depends on the manufacturer/supplier. For the referenced model by PRESTO, they offer technical support, training service, relocation assistance, maintenance support and parts supply.

This machine is designed to perform tensile tests on materials and products — that is, to apply a pulling force until deformation or breakage occurs, so that you can measure properties such as maximum tensile load, elongation, and strength.

The machine includes features like:

  • Over-load protection

  • Over-travel limit switches

  • Hardened lead screws for frictionless movement and stability
