84-02 Universal Tester 2.5kN - AT
  • INTRODUCTION

    The 2.5kN is a single-column, Universal tester. In stand-alone mode the machine can be programmed with up to 100 different test methods ranging from the most basic to the most sophisticated machine control, all with full graphics and statistical display. It is the ideal solution to testing problems where there is a need for precise, efficient and consistent performance.

    APPLICATIONS

    Plastics, Film, Paper, Tissue, Cord, Textiles, Nonwovens, Packaging, Rubber, Food, Adhesives, Fibers, Wire.
