Streamline Your Rubber Testing
with the Alpha Tensile Tester
Add this state-of-the-art tensile tester instrument to your lineup to take advantage of:
- The power of 60 years of experience from Alpha Technologies
- The reliability of Alpha instruments
- The convenience of one Alpha field service engineer and the same compatible software for all your Alpha instruments
AlphaFlex10 integrates seamlessly with the full portfolio of rheology testing instruments you already know and trust from Alpha Technologies, which means streamlined operations, faster service, and technology that’s built to last.
Unique design that ensures an extremely low tracking force for testing sensitive materials.
Robust construction that can easily withstand high-release forces and breaking energies
Simple yet effective follower attachment method for rapid throughput
How Does AlphaFlex10 Work?
AlphaFlex10 is a high elongation tensile tester designed to measure a wide range of rubber materials, including elastomers and non-rigid plastics. It works by applying tensile force to a specimen that has been attached to a variety of counterbalanced clamps at pre-selected gauge lengths. An optical encoder measures the slightest change in gauge length when the specimen is put under force, sending signals into the conditioner interface for processing.
A Highly Polymer Machine Testing Versatile
The AlphaFlex tensile tester offers a comprehensive range of testing modes, from tension and compression to flexural and cyclic testing. Empower your researchers and engineers to explore new enterprises in material behavior analysis by adding this powerful destructive physical properties testing machine to your in-house rubber testing capabilities
