Tensile Energy Absorption (T.E.A.) indicates the durability of papers which are subjected to repetitive straining and stressing. The Horizontal Tensile Tester offers menu driven pre-selection of parameters and infra-red sample detection for quick, effortless testing. The tensile measurement aids in assessing the suitability of a product for its end use and close relationship between tensile strain and fiber bond- ing serve to make this a very important test. Bռchel B.V. has developed the Horizontal Tensile tester to perform these relevant tests in a profes- sional way. The instrument has a build in large black & white liquid crystal display that is used in a conversational mode, allowing input of speci- men identity and all relevant test parameters. The test results are displayed and transmitted via the RS232-C serial output. >
