Motorized Test Stand Model TSFM500
The TSFM500 is designed for compression and tension testing of springs, packaging, metals, fabrics, and other items requiring up to 500 lb of force. Generous clearance and throat depth accommodate a broad range of sample shapes and sizes. The stand features a remote control unit for added safety during testing. The TSFM500’s durable and rigid column minimizes bend, making it particularly well suited for precision spring testing.
The operator can select from a speed range of 0.2 – 5.5 in/min. Customized speed ranges are available (contact us for more information). Other features include a manual fine adjustment knob and a stepper motor that prevents speed variation with load, making testing more precise and repeatable. Available in vertical and horizontal orientations.
Use this test stand with any of our force gauges and grips to create a complete testing solution.
