The Elmendorf Tear Tester is also called the Pendulum Tear Tester. It is for testing tearing resistance. This is used for conducting fabric tear strength tests. It tests how hard the fabric is to tear. It does this using the pendulum tearing method. The pendulum falls from a certain height. It turns all its potential energy into kinetic energy and cuts the fabric. Then, it measures the force needed for the fabric to tear to a certain length. This force shows how hard the fabric is to tear.
The innovative balance pendulum plate design achieves a higher accuracy for tear testing. The pendulum arm of the ElmenGuide Elmendorf Tear Tester is specially designed. Its center of gravity lines up with the rotation center. This happens when no weights are attached. This results in higher accuracy and reliability of the tear resistance test equipment.
The Elmendorf Tearing Tester complies with ASTM D1424, BS ISO 13937-1, and GB/T 3917.1, and ISO 4674-2. TESTEX also provides other types of Elmendorf Tear Strength Tester.
Description
The innovative design uses a balanced pendulum plate. It achieves a higher level of tear testing accuracy.
The pendulum arm of the ElmenGuide Elmendorf Tear Tester is specially designed. The center of gravity of the entire arm lines up with the rotation center when no weights are attached. This brings higher accuracy and reliability of the tear resistance test equipment.
Smart instrument
You can connect the Elmendorf Tear Tester to a smartphone. This allows you to remotely control and monitor tests. You can get the tear resistance test results directly and print them. You can also get equipment warning reminders. Additionally, it achieves one-click sharing of the testing status.
Automatic recognition of weights.
The Tearing Resistance Tester can recognize the weight attached. It adjusts to the right range.
Humanized design is for more safety.
The Elmendorf Tearing Tester has a double-button switch design. It prevents accidents and is easier for testing operators to use.
Precise manufacturing and stable operation.
This Elmendorf Tear Tester’s fixture rotates. It loses very few empty pendulums.
Many measurement units (N, cN, gf, lbf) to choose from.
Also, the ElmenGuide Tearing Resistance Tester has a precise appearance design. It has an aluminum alloy hard-oxidized surface. The surface is sleek, durable, and easy to clean. The trapezoidal chassis is more stable. The seven-inch color touchscreen is simple and easy to use.

Principle of Elmendorf Tear Tester
The weight is lifted to a certain height, giving it potential energy. The dynamic and fixed grippers align, clamp the specimen, and the cutter cuts a mouth in its middle. The hammer is swinging down freely. The dynamic and fixed grippers separate fast. The specimen is torn by the energy stored in the pendulum itself. The control system gets the remaining potential energy of the pendulum after the specimen is torn. It calculates the energy used to tear the specimen to find the force needed to tear it.

More about Elmendorf Tear Tests
After wearing, friction thins the yarn. Then, the force breaks the yarn, forming a crack. Fabric tears when a concentrated load acts on it. This tearing is a phenomenon. The fabric’s tearing strength, or Elmendorf tear strength, is important. It is an indicator of the textile. The instrument used to find this index is a fabric-tearing tester. It is more widely known as the Elmendorf Tear Tester.
The fabric tear tester can be used to determine the tear strength of various fabrics. All textile makers need a fabric tearing tester. So do textile testers. It has a simple structure and is easy to use. It has stable test data and many other advantages. Because of this, many industries, such as textile, paper, and packaging, are using it a lot. The difference is that each industry has a different standard of sample making.
The Elmendorf tear tester has related nicknames. They include the Elmendorf tear-resistant tester. They also include the Elmendorf tearing strength tester. They also include the Elmendorf tear strength tester.
