Horizontal paper tensile strength testing machine

A horizontal tensile strength tester evaluates paper/board resistance to breaking under tensile force, essential for assessing material durability in packaging and printing applications. This article details key standards, technical specs, operational mechanics, and testing principles to guide users in optimizing material quality and performance.

Normes applicables

The tester complies with global protocols such as ISO 1924-2 (tensile strength), TAPPI T494 (tensile properties), and GB/T 12914 (paper tensile testing). Adherence ensures reliable data for industry certifications and material benchmarking.

Paramètres principaux

Principe de fonctionnement

The tester grips sample ends, applies controlled tensile force, and measures resistance until failure. Sensors record force at break, elongation, and energy absorption, with software calculating tensile strength (kN/m) and elongation at break (%).

Principe d'essai

Simulating real-world tensile stresses, the test quantifies a material’s ability to withstand pulling forces. Results support material development, quality control, and compliance with packaging or printing standards.

This guide equips manufacturers to enhance product durability, reduce material failures, and ensure adherence to global quality norms through precise tensile strength testing.
