TR-250张力计

The Trigger Tension Meter measures tensions on wires, yarns, fiber optics, films, tapes, narrow fabrics and flat materials. The contact elements are recessed into the trigger shield, which stops material from snagging and/or breaking behind the rollers. Internal magnetic dampening assures an accurate tension reading no matter which position the meter is held in.

Our instruments are utilized extensively in the major wire, textile, coil winding, EDM, fiber optic and synthetic materials industries. We have established a reputation for providing quality instruments which endure rigorous industrial and test applications.

Tensitron has been manufacturing precision tension meters since 1935. The popularity of the Trigger Meters is due in part to their proven durability - our customers know they can count on using them for many years. We often ship the same day we receive your order!

Tensitron repairs and recertifies all of its meters. We regularly receive units which are 10-25 years old. We offer a quick turnaround time, plus you receive the appropriate calibration certification for today's industry standards at no extra charge.  
 

 

EDM WIRE APPLICATIONS

Tensitron, Inc. has a long time association with the wire EDM industry, dating back to the original American prototypes for this technology. Special EDM calibrations of our tension meters are performed to insure utmost accuracy for the instrument to the wire type. Typically these calibrated values mimic the calibration protocol for the Wire EDM machine and therefore help to insure maximum accuracy of wire tension throughout its entire tension range. We are quite familiar with the requirements of measuring tensions on different types of EDM wires and are happy to make a recommendation for your specific application.

As a general rule of thumb, most mechanical tension meters must be calibrated to the specific EDM wire being used, to ensure accuracy. The Digital Tension Meter, P/N: TX-5EDM already includes multiple calibrations for many different EDM wire sizes. If using the less expensive mechanical tension meter, we recommend our model P/N: TR-4000 specially calibrated to your wire size. For greater accuracy, flexibility, and ease of use we recommend our model TX-5EDM for EDM wire applications.

NARROW WEB & TAPE APPLICATIONS

Our Trigger Tension Meters, Model "TM" series are commonly used to measure tension in flexible, thin tapes and webs. The 1" cylindrical rollers can be clipped onto the edge of moving materials to easily give per linear inch (pli) tension readings up to 5000 grams (over several models).
