Mecmesin product story

British Gaskets, a manufacturer of gaskets and sealing products, has chosen a Mecmesin MultiTest 10-i force-testing system to perform quality-control assessments on their supplied materials.
The MultiTest 10-i is used to conduct tensile tests to find the elongation limit and tensile strength of the rubber and polymer materials, with reference to BS 903-A2:1995 Rubber dumbell samples are placed between two spring-loaded fold grips and stretched until the material breaks.
The MultiTest 10-i, driven by Mecmesin's powerful Emperor software provides fully automated control of all test parameters and the test results are displayed graphically within the software, showing clearly at what point the material breaks during the test.
British Gaskets chose the MultiTest 10-i as a cost-effective alternative to outsourcing its materials-testing process.
