PullTester 26
Motorized testing device for destructive and non-destructive pull force tests up to 1,000 N (220 lbf.).
Schleuniger’s PullTester 26 is a dual-range, motorised, bench-top unit designed to measure pulltest forces of wire crimp connections as well ultrasonic metal welding connections on a wider range than single-range pull test devices. These measured values are indispensible parameters (IEC 60352-2 standard) for quality control and assurance. This standard requiresmeasurement at the maximum measured force (destructive test). In addition to the base model PullTester 25, the PullTester 26 can also perform non-destructive tests (hold to a specified force). This versatile machine has two measuring ranges, which are individually calibrated enabling use of its 500 N scale for small wires, while easily switching to its 1000 N scale for larger wires. This dual-range capability ensures the highest accuracy for the widest range of applications. Hand actuated or pneumatic pull test devices can give inconsistent data depending on the operator or pull rate.
The IEC standard specifies that a pull tester measures with a consistent pull rate. The Schleuniger PullTester 26 is equipped with a controlled speed motor, ensuring consistent pull rates throughout the measuring range which means repeatable and accurate data. Pull forces can be measured in pounds, New tons or kilo ponds. The standard 12-position terminal holder accommodates a wide variety of terminals to suit most applications. A variety of terminal holders, however, are available upon request.
Applications
The PullTester 26 has additional features over the PullTester 25 to accommodate more stringent test requirements. It can also be integrated with a quality network which ties in crimp height, pull test and crimp force data to ensure a high quality tested product. Pull test data can be stored for future reference or downloaded for statistical evaluation. The PullTester 26 is specially suited for quality assurance in a production environment.
