PullTester 326
Pull Testing Machine
Overview
The PullTester 326 is a triple-range, motorized benchtop device for measuring pull forces of crimp connections as well as welded connections. The triple-range capability gives the PullTester 326 incredible application flexibility to handle a wide variety of testing applications.
- Simple LCD display for easy programming and digital pull-force readout
- Speed-controlled motor for consistent pull rates throughout the measuring range
- 3 selectable force ranges for improved accuracy over a wider range of wires
- 4 selectable test modes for destructive and nondestructive testing
- Job memory for loading test parameters and extracting test results for statistical analysis
- RS 232 interface for curve analysis with WinCrimp statistical software
Application Range
Schleuniger’s PullTester 326 is a triple-range, motorized, benchtop unit designed to measure pull-test forces of crimp and ultrasonic weld connections on a wider range of wires than single-range pull-test devices. Pull-test values are critical parameters for quality control and assurance. The PullTester 326 can also perform nondestructive tests (hold to a specified force). This versatile machine has three measuring ranges, which are individually calibrated. The standard measuring ranges are 200 N, 1,000 N, and 2,000 N (45 lbf., 225 lbf., 450 lbf.), however, other variations are available by special order. This triple-range capability ensures the highest accuracy for the widest range of applications. Hand-actuated or pneumatic pull-test devices can give inconsistent data depending on the operator or pull rate. Some standards specify that a test device must pull with a consistent rate. The Schleuniger PullTester 326 is equipped with a speed-controlled motor, ensuring consistent pull rates throughout the measuring range, resulting in repeatable and accurate data. Pull forces can be measured in poundforce, Newtons or kiloponds. The standard 14-position terminal holder accommodates a wide variety of terminals to suit most applications. A variety of terminal holders, however, are available upon request.
