Product Introduction
The Horizontal tensile strength tester uses the constant-rate-of-elongation principle. An imported servo motor drives a precision ball screw to apply an axial tensile load to a standard-sized specimen at a constant rate until rupture. A high-speed single-chip microcomputer and high-speed sampling module capture real-time force and displacement data, automatically identifying and locking the maximum force and calculating all tensile parameters. The instrument is equipped with specialized paper grips and a soaking trough for convenient standard and wet tensile testing. The touchscreen displays real-time data such as tensile time and load, and automatically generates a statistical report upon test completion.
Key Features
High Precision, Wide Range Measuring range of 0-300 N with a resolution of ≤0.1 N and accuracy of ≤1%; optional 30 N and 50 N ranges specifically for low-strength papers like tissue.
Stable Horizontal Design Horizontal structure is compact and stable with a low center of gravity, suitable for benchtop use and long-term operation.
Imported Servo Motor Drive Driven by an imported servo motor for quiet operation and precise control; digital stepless speed adjustment from 1 to 500 mm/min for both testing and return.
High-Speed Real-Time Data Acquisition High-speed single-chip microcomputer and sampling module ensure real-time measurement data, preventing loss of maximum force value.
Large Touchscreen Display Large touchscreen with an intuitive menu displays real-time tensile time, load, elongation, and other parameters.
Automatic Statistics and Printing Automatically displays measurement results and prints a statistical report (average, standard deviation, coefficient of variation) upon test completion via a low-noise thermal printer.
Automatic Wet Tensile Testing Specialized grips with an integrated soaking trough enable convenient wet tensile strength testing to meet standard requirements.
Flexible Specimen Size Adaptation Adjustable clamp distance from 30 to 300 mm, with variable specimen size and testing speed settings to accommodate different standard and non-standard specimens.

FAQ
1. What are the advantages of a horizontal structure compared to a vertical one?
The horizontal structure has a low center of gravity for excellent stability and convenient operation, ideal for benchtop use. It is particularly well-suited for applications requiring a soaking trough for wet tensile testing.
2. How is wet tensile strength testing performed?
The instrument is equipped with a dedicated soaking trough. After the specimen is clamped, it is soaked under specified conditions using the trough before tensile testing is initiated. The result obtained is the wet tensile strength, meeting the requirements of GB/T 12914 for wet strength determination.
3. How should the measuring range be selected?
The 300 N range is suitable for tensile testing of ordinary paper and paperboard. The 30 N and 50 N ranges are specially designed for low-strength, lightweight papers such as tissue paper and facial tissue, offering higher resolution and more precise results.

4. How is the test speed set?
The tensile speed is digitally adjustable from 1 to 500 mm/min via the touchscreen. Standard test speeds can be found in GB/T 12914-2008, or users can set a suitable speed based on specimen characteristics.
5. Can data be exported to a computer?
The instrument has a standard RS232 serial interface (optional) for data communication with a host computer for comprehensive reporting, facilitating data export and further analysis.
6. Are the grips easy to replace and maintain?
The specialized paper grips are well-designed for quick and easy specimen clamping, eliminating grip influence on test results. Keep the grip surfaces clean. Contact our after-sales service for any replacement or maintenance needs.

Tensile strength is one of the most fundamental mechanical properties of paper and paperboard, reflecting the material's ability to resist breaking under tensile load. Paper is subjected to tensile stresses during printing, packaging, and use of tissue products; tensile strength directly relates to product processability and use reliability. The GB/T 12914-2008 standard specifies the constant-rate-of-elongation method, where a specimen of defined dimensions is pulled to rupture under standard temperature and humidity conditions, recording parameters such as maximum force, elongation, and energy absorption. Breaking length characterizes the relationship between a paper's tensile strength and its grammage, while wet tensile strength reflects its strength retention when wet. Modern horizontal tensile strength testers employ imported servo motors, high-speed data acquisition, and touchscreen control technologies to automate and digitize the testing process. They are widely used for quality testing, new product development, and process optimization across various paper, paperboard, and hygiene product applications, serving as core mechanical testing equipment in papermaking and related industry laboratories.
