Tensile Test Systems MPT-250B
For Wire Terminations and Similar Applications
THE DEPENDABLE ALPHA-TEST™ SYSTEM
Now available from DMC is a line of Electronics Tensile Test Systems which may be used in conjunction with SPC Programs or other Quality Control disciplines in both OEM and Maintenance applications. Alphatron MPT-250B now replaces MPT-200A, and MPT-250A.
The rugged construction and the portable design of these test machines make any of them a superior choice for on-site or laboratory use in an infinite variety of applications. The operation of the equipment is simple yet versatile, and Alphatron will customize the gripping jaws or other components to make test sample installation and removal an easy task.
Models are available with output display reading Pounds, Newtons and/or Kilograms to conform with the requirements of the users system. Units are available for either 115 or 230 volt power input.
