Tensile Tester EZ-LX

Price inquiry

Tensile Tester (Universal Testing Machine) is perfect for the tensile testing and bend testing of plastics (5 kN maximum capacity). The 920 mm stroke capacity also makes it perfect for testing rubber, film, and other materials with large elongation.

Shimadzu EZ LX Tensile Testers are designed to achieve the highest accuracy and reliability to meet the requirements of European, American and all other DIN, EN, ISO, ASTM, JIS, IS, etc. standards over a long service life, not only in the main measured quantities of force, travel, but also elongation and more.

One of the main purposes of the development of this testing machine was to be able to measure texture - the texture meter. But with a capacity of up to 5kN, this tensile tester exceeds the requirements of the food industry and is used for testing plastics, filaments, foils, cable insulation, paper...

Texturometer

For use in the food and pharmaceutical industry, the TEXTURE software module has been developed to measure and evaluate (predefined results), in addition to standard quantities such as Fmax, requirements:

Food industry (Stress / force required for bite, food quality for cooking, peeling resistance, toughness and brittleness of food, crispiness, breaking work, tenderness, gumminess and chewiness)
Pharmaceutical industry (tablet hardness, the force required to break a tablet – powder
squeezing the liquid out of the syringe, strength of the packaging material, force required to push out of the packaging, needle puncture, measurement of the quality of medical devices (needles, condoms, sutures)
Other industries (strength of gypsum, binders and similar powder materials, bending strength of the sample (possibility of connecting a deflection sensor), E-module tensile strength
