Product catalog summary
Overview
The FTS-01 Elmendorf Tearing Tester by Pubtester Instruments Co., Ltd. is designed for testing the tearing strength of various materials including films, sheets, textiles, and more. It features advanced technology for precise and efficient testing.

Technical Features
  • Computer-controlled with automatic electronic measurement for ease of operation.
  • Equipped with multiple pendulum capacities (up to 6400gf) to accommodate different testing needs.
  • Pneumatic specimen clamping and automatic pendulum release to minimize system errors.
  • Horizontal adjustment system for optimal instrument performance.
  • RS232 port for data transmission and external connectivity.
  • Data statistics function displaying maximum, minimum, and average values.
  • Built-in micro printer for automatic data printing.

Security Configuration
  • Overload protection, automatic clearing, and power-off memory for user safety.
  • Over-range shutdown function to protect the sensor.

Test Principle
The tester uses a pendulum lifted to a certain height to provide initial potential energy. As the pendulum swings down, it tears the specimen, and the computer calculates the energy decrease to determine the tearing force.

Applications
  • Basic Applications: Plastic films and sheets, paper and paperboard, textiles.
  • Extended Applications: Heavy package bags, rubber gloves, wrapping films.

Technical Specifications
  • Pendulum Capacity: 200 gf to 6400 gf.
  • Sample Holder: Pneumatic.
  • Pendulum Release: Pneumatic.
  • Gas Supply Pressure: 0.6MPa (not included).
  • Port Size: Φ4 mm PU Tubing.
  • Instrument Dimensions: 520 mm (L) × 390 mm (W) × 560 mm (H).
  • Power Supply: AC 220V 50Hz / AC 120V 60Hz.
  • Net Weight: 35kg (with 200gf basic pendulum).

Standards
Complies with ISO 6383-1-1983, ISO 6383-2-1983, ISO 1974, GB/T16578.2-2009, GB/T455, ASTM D1922, ASTM D1424, ASTM D689, TAPPI T414.

Configuration
  • Standard Configuration: Mainframe, one basic pendulum (200gf), one calibration weight.
  • Optional Parts: Additional pendulums and calibration weights, two cutters (constant-radius, rectangle).

Note: The air supply port requires Φ4 mm PU Tubing, and customers must prepare their own air supply.
