TEARDY-5000: Digital Tear Resistance Analyzer

Overview
The TEARDY-5000 quantifies the tear strength of textiles, films, and composites using a dual-pendulum mechanism per ASTM D1424 and ISO 34. Engineered for R&D labs, it provides repeatable measurements of material resistance to tearing forces.

Core Features

1. Dual Testing Modes: pendulum (Graves) and falling dart methods with adjustable clamps (5–50 N).
2. Digital Sensors: Optical encoders measure tear propagation (±0.1 mm accuracy) and energy absorption (Joules).
3. Material Compatibility: Handles brittle films, flexible textiles, and multi-layer composites.
4. Data Analytics: Software generates stress-strain curves, tear rate graphs, and compliance reports.

Applications

• Textiles: Test ripstop fabrics and medical nonwovens.
• Packaging: Validate tear resistance in polyethylene films.
• Automotive: Certify seat covers and interior trim durability.

Compliance
ASTM D1424, ISO 34, EN ISO 34.

Optional Add-Ons

• High-speed cameras (2,000 fps) for fracture analysis.
• Multi-axis fixtures for 3D tear simulations.
• Automated report generators with material certification templates.

Conclusion
The TEARDY-5000 delivers precise tear resistance data, enabling manufacturers to optimize material durability and reduce product failure risks.
