Horizontal Chain and Rope Testing Machine

Horizontal Chain & Wire Rope Testing Machines
(Model : FCR, FCR-E / FCR-EC)

  • Machines are designed to test chains, wire ropes & any long specimens for proof test or destructive tensile test.
  • High loading accuracy & infinitely variable straining speeds to suit a wide range of materials.
  • Continuous roll autographic recorder to get load - elongation graph.
  • Robust loading frame, Simple controls & easy to operate.
  • Adequate safety devices for safe operation.
  • Analogue models with large dial & load measurement by pendulum dynamometer principle.
  • Digital / Computerized models are also available where load Vs elongation is in digital display & printout of results can be taken.
  • Special Accessories like - Extra Bed length, Extra Ram stroke, Various special grips / attachments / fixtures as per sizes / shapes of specimens, Load-stabilizer (at extra cost) can be provided to suit special application.
  • Various Models - Maximum Capacity from 100 kN to 3000 kN.
  • Loading accuracy well within ±1%, conforms to IS:1828 / BS:1610.
