- Multiple unit display of experimental results
- Computer-assisted horizontal adjustment system could maintain the instrument optimum status
- Equipped with RS232 port which is convenient for the data transmission and external connection
Test Principle
Lift the pendulum up to a certain height to give it initial potential energy. The pendulum tears the specimen while swinging down. A computer calculates the decreased energy caused by tearing to obtain the required force for tearing.
