Motorized high-precision testing equipment designed for certified evaluation of extraction resistance and structural shear strength in thermal brake profiles.

General

The AS 251 M is a motorized shear tester specifically engineered to evaluate the extraction resistance of thermal brake profiles in full compliance with the EN 14024 standard. Designed for high-precision quality control, this grip tester provides repeatable measurements essential for manufacturers and laboratories performing certified audits. The system utilizes a constant motorized feed rate and integrated load cell technology to identify the maximum applied thrust during the test cycle. By ensuring the structural integrity of the bond between aluminum extrusions and polyamide strips, this shear tester serves as a critical component in high-volume production quality assurance.

Features

  • Full compliance with EN 14024 standards for motorized shear strength testing.
  • Motorized pusher system providing a constant feed rate of 5 mm/min (0.2"/min).
  • Integrated load cell to identify and display maximum thrust applied during the stroke.
  • Height-adjustable vertical containment rollers mounted on bearings for various profile types.
  • Manual adjustment of containment rollers via handwheel for quick setup changes.
  • Lower support surface adjustment featuring a handwheel with an integrated counter.
  • Quick-release mechanism for rapid sample profile securing and removal.
  • Data transfer capability to external PCs for analyzing load trends and reporting.
