PowerTear tests tearing resistance

Published On: August 1, 2013

To serve the industry need for a high-quality, reliable instrument to evaluate tearing resistance, SDL Atlas has introduced the PowerTear High-Energy Elmendorf Tearing Tester. Unit uses a microprocessor-controlled falling pendulum with digital display to determine ballistic tearing strength by propagating a single rip tear in a testing sample. Versatile tester allows for a wide range of capability for testing both fine and heavyweight specimens. New software is compatible with all Windows operating systems.
