With a speed range from 0.001 to 800 mm/min, a crosshead travel of 1100 mm, a complete range of highly accurate load cells and efficient clamping accessories, and the available extension meter, it permits to satisfy all the requirements of the technical textile testing applications.
It embodies various safety solutions, like a 3-steps clamps closing system and a protection frontal cover, to prevent any operator’s accident to respect the latest and most severe labor safety prescriptions.
The new TENSOLAB 50kN embodies a combination of the best ingredients: latest technology, best electronics, new software & new interchangeable accessories, stunning performances (in terms of capacity, versatility, accuracy, and testing efficiency), and of course Italian design and the Mesdan’s 30-year experience in dynamometer R&D and manufacturing.
