The Tinius Olsen wire twisting machine is a benchtop system that provide the simplicity, performance and affordability needed for quality control and product testing.

The twister is designed to check the number of twists required to fracture a wire. Normally furnished as a bench unit, these machines are also available as floor models, and as multiple twisting units for simultaneously testing two, three or more samples.

The standard, variable speed, motor drive makes up to 62 twists per minute (rpm) with a maximum torsion rating of 1,500in.lbs. A counter indicates the total number of twists, and automatically stops the machine when the specimen fails.

Wire samples up to 18in long can be accomodated. An initial tensile load of up to 150lb can be applied to prevent kinking. Load is read in 2lb, increment on a scale.

Model MHT 1000

For maximum tensile testing throughput and capability, Tinius Olsen offers horizontal tensile testing machines with capacities of 5kN (1000lbf).

Model MHT-1,000 horizontal testing machine offer unique benefits over vertically oriented testers by allowing a range of accessories to be mounted next to the machine to turn it into a fully automatic testing station.

They are designed primarily for production departments and are typically in constant use; however, the grips can be modified to accommodate different shaped samples and alternate grips can be provided for customers when test requirements change.

The horizontal extensometer that is typically used with the machine has a unique design that incorporates pneumatic controls to automatically lower the arms prior to the test and raise the arms at the end of the test. Air bearings on the extensometer provide accurate strain measurement through fracture.

Model 3000SL

The Model 3000SL is designed for tension, compression, flexure and shear strength testing on materials, assemblies and components. The robust design, quality materials and precision engineering ensure testing capability even at full load, day after day.

Tinius Olsen’s hydraulic testers have long been recognized as the standard for accuracy, dependability and versatility in universal testing machines. The many thousands of testers currently in use throughout the world attest to this fact. Now more than ever, the SL series represents the highest standard in hydraulically powered universal testing machines.
