Model B Tester (click to enlarge)
The improved Model B
tester from Benz has automated the test process with
microprocessor-controlled data acquisition. Designed
to provide the expected internal bond strength for
various types of paper, coated products and
paperboard, this instrument measures the impact
energy imparted to the specimen. The machine consists
of a base, sample-preparation press, tape dispenser,
dual-range pendulum (0 to 0.325 ft. lbs. and 0 to
0.650 ft. lbs.) and Digital Display. Internal Bond software
is available.
The specimen
is held between the base and the anvil of the test
fixture, using double-faced pressure-sensitive tape.
One-inch-square specimens are prepared under
calibrated pressure to insure uniform adhesion to the
fixture and the aluminum angle. The impact force of
the pendulum head striking the aluminum angle is
displayed on the PC.
- precise results
without operator interpretation - assures
material quality
- time-saving
reports - test results displayed on computer
screen with previous results for comparison.
- increase
testing-budget buying power - affordable,
reliable design
- simple, fast
testing - quick-release sample set-up
- tests a variety
of products - user-selectable parameters
The Model B also
includes five sample bases, five sample angle
holders, a knife-blade assembly, and
pressure-sensitive tape.
