TENSILE TEST SYSTEMS
For
Wire Terminations and Similar Applications
THE
DEPENDABLE
ALPHA-TEST™
SYSTEM
Now available from DMC is a line of Electronic
Tensile Test Systems which may be used in conjunction
with SPC Programs or other Quality Control disciplines
in both OEM and maintenance applications. The electronic
digital readout displays are a fast and reliable source
of test data.
The rugged construction and the portable design of
these test machines make any of them a superior choice
for on-site or laboratory use in an infinite variety of
applications. The operation of the equipment is simple
yet versatile, and DMC will customize the gripping jaws
or other components to make test sample installation and
removal an easy task.
Models are available with output display readings in
Pounds, Newtons, and/or Kilograms to conform with the
requirements of the user’s system. Units are available
for either 115 or 230 volt power input.
It’s only natural that the company which supplies the
best wire termination tools and equipment would add the
very best Digital Tensile Testers to further meet the
demand for fewer sources and improved support through a
wider range of user needs.
The MPT-250B
Motorized Wire Crimp Pull Tester is ideal when a
constant rate of pull is desired. It tests crimp
strength on terminations up to size 8 in Mil-Spec
applications, and size 1/0 AWG in commercial and
automotive applications.
The
HPT-200 Hand-Held Pull Tester blends the accuracy
and rugged design of the Alphatron pull testers
into a self-contained, portable, rechargeable battery
powered unit. It is ideal for testing crimp
strength up to size 10 AWG in Mil-Spec
applications, and size 10 AWG in commercial and
automotive applications.
The
PT-150H Manual Wire Crimp Pull Tester is ideal for
testing crimp strength up to size 10 for Mil-Spec
applications, and size 4 AWG for commercial and
automotive applications.
 The
PT-40XP Manual Wire Crimp Pull Tester was specially
designed to test the lower range tensile values of the
medical and telecommunications industries, from 1 to 40
lbs.
