Tensile strength is the stress at which a material breaks or permanently deforms. PRESTO Digital Tensile Tester is a state of the art, highly versatile equipment for checking the breaking strength of packaging related raw materials and finished products.

Tensile tests are commonly used to measure the mechanical properties of plastics. The force required to break a plastic sample specimen is an indication of the material's strength, while the extent to which the specimen stretches or elongates to that breaking point provides information about its ductility.

The Presto Tensile Testing Machine is based on the Constant Rate of Traverse (CRT) principle. During the test, the sample is held between two jaws. The upper jaw is stationary, while the lower jaw is made to move at a designated fixed speed with the help of a motor.

Presto comes with a new model of tensile testing machine with a COF tester. This testing machine is well designed with industry standards like ASTM D618, ASTM D 883, BS 2782, and ASTM D 1894. With the help of this testing machine, you can easily measure the tensile strength along with the co-efficient of friction of various products like plastic films, sheets, and rubber and paper.
