Tensile testing machine SYN TEST PTM

automatedmanualsemi-automatic

The SYN TEST PTM (Plate Testing Machine) system is used for automated transverse tensile testing as well as automated lift resistance testing of wood-based panels. A big advantage is the repeatability of the tests. The adhesive quantity and pattern, curing time, contact pressure and centering are reproducible in contrast to the manual / semi-automated test. A deployment is possible around the clock, 7 days a week and an immediate transfer of the results into the production is possible. The operation is simple and is also possible by non-laboratory personnel. An increased production speed as well as a reduced scrap lead to a short payback period of the testing laboratory. Benefits at a glance Significant improvement of the repeatability of the measuring results Reduction of glue quantity Scrap rate can be reduced significantly Increased production speed Measuring method Part handling within the plant is the responsibility of a 6-axis robot on which a double gripper is mounted. This consists of a vacuum gripper and a parallel gripper. The vacuum gripper is responsible for the handling of the test specimens and the parallel gripper for the handling of the test yokes and the assembled specimens. For the two possible destructive tests (transverse tensile test and optional lifting strength test) different aluminum yokes are required. These are automatically provided for the preparation of the samples by means of their own feed belt with yoke separation and an optional yoke storage (lift-off resistance).
