Tensile Testing Machine – Common Malfunctions and Solutions

A tensile testing machine is a type of testing equipment that is essential in processes such as material development, physical property testing, education and training, quality control, material inspection, and random inspection on production lines. It is used to conduct mechanical tests on materials, including tension, compression, bending, shearing, and peeling.

During the use of a tensile testing machine, certain malfunctions are inevitable. We should be able to identify and diagnose these faults correctly and take appropriate measures to resolve them. Only in this way can various issues encountered during operation be resolved smoothly, the service life of the machine be extended, and the test results become more accurate. Here are some solutions to common problems as follows.

Importance of Routine Maintenance

Regular maintenance of the tensile testing machine can greatly reduce malfunctions. It is important to frequently check whether the frame is well-lubricated, inspect the load system, strain system, and transmission system, as well as verify the functions of the control panel, power supply voltage, startup detection, pneumatic grips, air compressor, and footswitch.
By carrying out routine maintenance, incorrect test results can be avoided, and the service life of the machine can be extended. Periodic inspection and calibration of the testing machine are also essential to ensure reliable and accurate performance.

Dry vs Wet Sieving in Geotextile Test

Image
Sieving refers to the process of separating a mixture of different particle sizes into several different particle size levels through a perforated sieve surface. After weighing them separately, the particle size distribution expressed as a mass percentage can be obtained. According to the different moisture content of the powder, it is mainly divided into two categories: dry sieving and wet sieving. The following will introduce the definition of dry sieving and wet sieving, the operating steps and equipment required to test the aperture of geotextiles using these two methods, and the difference between the two methods. Dry sieving What is dry sieving Place the dry powder material in the screening equipment, and use mechanical vibration and other methods to make the powder pass through the screen. After the screening is completed, the weight of the screen residue and the weight of the material on the bottom of the screen are counted. The sum of the two is then subtracted from the weight...

Selection of materials for jigger dyeing machine parts

Image
In the textile industry, the jigger dyeing machine is a key textile printing and dyeing equipment. The selection of its main manufacturing material has a vital impact on the performance, durability, and dyeing effect of the equipment. Stainless steel is one of the most commonly used materials in modern dye jigger manufacturing, especially 304 and 316L. Material selection for each component of the jigger dyeing machine The jigger dyeing machine is composed of a frame, an electric control cabinet, a vessel/top cover, a circulation system, a dye bath, a main roller, a guide roller, a tension frame, an additional tank, a debatching device, and other parts. More details about jigger dyeing machine in our company No contact with dye solution ​ For parts that are not in contact with the dye solution, the main consideration when choosing the manufacturing material is the use environment of the equipment. Generally speaking, the environment of the dyeing factory is harsh. We recommend using 304...

Introduction of Sizing

Image
  Sizing is the process of applying size to warp yarns to improve their weavability. Weavability refers to the ability of warp yarns to withstand repeated friction, stretching, bending and other effects of stop sheets, heddles, reeds, etc. on a loom without causing excessive fluffing or even breakage. Unsized single yarn fibers do not adhere tightly to each other and have more hairiness on the surface, making it difficult to weave. After sizing, part of the sizing liquid penetrates between the fibers, and the other part adheres to the surface of the warp yarn. The sizing that mainly involves the penetration of the slurry into the fibers is called penetrating sizing, and the sizing that mainly relies on the slurry adhering to the surface of the warp yarns is called covering sizing. Ancient manual sizing involves spreading the warp yarns into sheets, applying paste with a brush or reed, drying and then winding them into weaving beams. Wang Zhen’s “Nongshu” of the Yuan Dynasty contain...
