Vertical Tensile Tester
Model: AME-1015The AME Technology Vertical Tensile Tester (NexGen) AME-1015 is an advanced, high-performance testing system engineered for precise and repeatable determination of tensile properties of paper, paperboard, tissue, and other flexible sheet materials. Designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern quality control laboratories, research institutions, and production facilities, the AME-1015 combines robust mechanical construction with intelligent NexGen automation to deliver dependable and consistent test results.
The rigid vertical frame architecture ensures excellent structural stability and precise specimen alignment throughout the test cycle, minimizing measurement variability and mechanical deflection. Equipped with a high-accuracy load cell and precision crosshead drive system, the tester enables accurate evaluation of critical tensile parameters including tensile strength, elongation, strain at break, tensile energy absorption (TEA), tensile stiffness, tensile index, and breaking length.
The AME Technology Vertical Tensile Tester (NexGen) AME-1015 is an advanced tensile testing system engineered to deliver precise, repeatable, and standardized tensile measurements for paper, paperboard, and tissue materials. The instrument eliminates operator-related variability through automated test execution, accurate force control, and intelligent data processing.
The tester is equipped with high-friction anti-slip clamps that securely grip specimens without causing damage, ensuring accurate elongation and tensile force measurement. The crosshead movement is driven by a high-precision lead screw powered by a servo/stepper motor, allowing smooth motion, precise speed control, and consistent test conditions.
The integrated NexGen touch interface records, processes, and stores test data automatically. Upon test completion, the system generates comprehensive test reports including graphical representations and statistical analysis such as maximum, minimum, mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and MD/CD ratio. Reports can be printed or transferred wirelessly or via USB to a PC for further evaluation.
