Messmer Büchel (Messmer Buchel)

The Burst Tester is used as a multi-directional test to identify failure in the direction showing least resistance. This test shows the physical strength and fiber bond. Different models are available for paper, board or textile. This instrument is also used for other applications such as plastic, rubber, aluminum and felts. The sample is pneumatically clamped, the rubber membrane is pushed upwards by hydraulics. The force at fracture is recorded.

The Crush Test is designed as a robust, easy to use instrument. Exactly what you need when performing crush tests. The Crush Tester is suitable for a wide variety of samples, including corrugated board, tubes, paper and plastics. The special sample holders extend the instrument’s possibilities. The accuracy is achieved with a precision load cell, which is even accurate at low force values.

The model 49-56 Digital Micrometer combines unmatched accuracy and resolution with a modern contemporary look. The Micrometer can be configured to meet ISO, ASTM, TAPPI, EDANA or other international specifications. The Micrometer offers a cantilever balance system to allow low pressure measurements. This feature also allows adding or removing additional weights for multiple pressure applications. The instrument is supplied with a sensing eye next to the anvil. When a sample is detected the test cycle automatically starts.

Insert Your Sample and Test

The Horizontal Tensile Tester tests the tensile strength and elongation of a sample. After placing the sample the sensor detects the sample and the test starts. Special guides are supplied to center the sample correctly. The guides can be replaced when another test width is required. The wide workbench enables you to easily perform your tests. The auto detect option leaves your hands free to slide in your sample. The touchscreen has clear buttons makes navigation quick and easily. As an option, the instrument can be adapted for wet test according to ISO 12625-5.

Test Results

After the tests the values are shown in a graph and in statistical values. The main results are force, strain, T.E.A, elongation and force, and there is a wide range of other results. The instrument is equipped with an overload protection and can be supplied with a 50, 100, 250, 500 or 1,000N load cell.
