Tensile Test Bed

PULL-A SERIES

Tensile Test Bed

UNIVER PULL-A Series Horizontal Tensile Testing Machines are specifically designed for testing wires, ropes, chains, shackles, overhead conductors, and OPGW. The horizontal test configuration accommodates long specimens and applications requiring high elongation capacity.

These test frames are powered by either hydraulic or servo motor drive systems, providing the strength and precision needed for high-capacity testing. Frame length and grip configurations can be customized to meet specific application requirements. Interchangeable grips are available to suit different specimen shapes and to adapt easily as testing needs evolve.

The system is supplied with advanced PC-based control software featuring integrated data acquisition and analysis capabilities for efficient and accurate test management.

Features:

Large Test Capacity
The wide bed clearance allows testing of a broad range of specimens, including full-length samples, sling assemblies, and high-capacity components.
Adjustable Carriage
A roller-supported carriage enables smooth positioning and easy adjustment to match the nominal specimen length.
Robust Frame Construction
The main frame consists of heavy-duty steel side sections with cross bracing and multiple carriage location points along the bed for flexible setup.
Integrated Self-Calibration System
A built-in calibration structure allows users to calibrate the load cell directly on the machine, eliminating the need to remove it for external calibration.
Customizable Fixtures and Measurement Systems
Frames, fixtures, and strain measurement devices can be tailored for various product types requiring tensile testing. The piston head and cylinder ends are equipped with low-friction seals for smooth operation.
Comprehensive Safety Protection
The testing area is fully guarded with fixed lower plates and manually operated, hinged upper guards to ensure operator safety.
High Measurement Accuracy
Load accuracy is maintained within ±1% for high-capacity tests and within ±0.5% for lower capacities.
Patented Calibration Technology
The integrated load cell calibration system allows in-place calibration of both the load cell and the complete machine, improving accuracy and efficiency.
Dual Control Modes
The system features fully automatic and manual control options, ensuring continuous operation even if one control mode becomes unavailable.
High Load Capacity
Models with load capacities up to 20 MN (2000 tons) have been available since 2013.
