Horizontal tensile testing machine for conducting adhesive strength tests. The sample table is equipped as a movable clamp with constant feed, while the fixed clamp is rigidly coupled to the measuring device. This can measure properties such as separation force and peel strength, for example, at peel angles of 180° or 90° (option). It is operated using the controls on the device and the software FTSOFT.

Horizontal tensile testing machine. The sample table is equipped as a movable clamp with constant feed, while the fixed clamp is rigidly coupled to the measuring device. This can measure properties such as separation force and peel strength at a peel angle of 180°. The FT-1000H can be used in standalone mode - averaging at a predetermined speed. It is operated using the controls on the device.

This adhesion tester is tailored to the requirements of manufacturers, processors and users of adhesive composite materials. Its specifications correspond to the FINAT* and Afera** test standards. The sample table is driven using an electronically controlled encoder position control, which precisely maintains the speed. The determined average tensile force is shown on the display of the measuring device. 50/300/1000 mm/min and pulling speeds from 10 mm/min to 10 m/min can be set. The standard pulling speed is 300 mm/min. Optionally, a motor-operated 90° pull-off is possible.

Compact table-top device with a UV light sensor that outputs the luminescence (wavelength 450-750nm) of the test material. The luminescence value is measured by the sensor and displayed on the analog display on the device. The range of the luminescence value measurement is 5-12 LAETUS corresponding to CIBA GEIGY whiteness index. It is suitable for direct reading of the luminescence value of paper, plastic materials, coatings, etc.

The peel strength according to Finat FTM 2 is defined in the same way as the peel strength according to Finat FTM 1, but with a peel angle of 90°. The peel strength of label material depends on the peel angle. Often there is a minimum peel strength at a peel angle of 90°. Measurement type I (90°) is therefore best used if the label material tears with measurement type A (180°) and if a measurement result without a material tear is required. The roller peeling device (additional equipment) is required to carry out measurement type I.
