What is the purpose of the SLD-01 Tear Tester?

The primary purpose of the SLD-01 Tear Tester is to determine the tear resistance of materials. Tear resistance, also known as tear strength, is a critical mechanical property that reflects a material's ability to withstand tearing forces. The tester employs the Elmendorf test method, named after its inventor, Armin Elmendorf, to measure the average force required to tear a sample after the tear has been initiated. This information is crucial for assessing the durability and suitability of materials in various applications.

Application

The SLD-01 Tear Tester finds application across a broad spectrum of industries and research facilities, including enterprises, colleges, universities, and official laboratories. It is particularly valuable in the plastics, paper, textile, food, pharmaceutical, toiletry, printing, and adhesives industries, among others. The tester's versatility makes it suitable for any scenario where tear strength is a critical factor in material performance.

Specifications

Test Process

The Elmendorf tear test involves creating a slit in the sample material using a cutting knife. The pendulum mechanism is then released under the influence of gravity, propagating the slit through the remaining 43mm of the sample. The energy lost by the pendulum during this tear propagation is used to calculate the average tearing force.
