Digital Spring Testing Machine – TLS-S100I

Digital Spring Testing Machine, also known as a spring tester or spring testing equipment, is a device used to measure and evaluate the properties of springs. Springs are mechanical components that store and release energy when subjected to a force, and they are commonly used in various applications, such as automotive suspension systems, industrial machinery, and consumer products. These machines are essential tools for quality control and research and development in industries that rely on springs. They help ensure that springs meet specified performance criteria and can be used safely and effectively in various applications.

Components:

  1. Load Cell: This is the sensor responsible for measuring the force applied to the spring.
  2. Displacement Sensor: It measures the displacement or change in length of the spring during testing.
  3. Control Unit: This unit controls the testing process, records data, and provides a digital display of the results.
  4. Gripping Mechanism: A mechanism that securely holds the spring in place during testing to prevent any movement or slippage.
  5. Software: Many modern spring testers are equipped with software that allows for data analysis, graphing, and reporting.

Digital spring testing machines are crucial tools for industries that rely on springs, such as automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, and more. They help ensure that springs meet specified performance criteria, meet safety standards, and are suitable for their intended applications. These machines contribute to product quality, reliability, and overall efficiency in the production and design of spring-based components.

Key Features

  • Digital Force Measurement: Digital spring testers are equipped with load cells or force transducers that provide accurate and precise measurements of the force applied to the spring. This allows for real-time monitoring of the force being exerted on the spring during testing.
  • Displacement Measurement: These machines are equipped with displacement sensors or encoders that measure the changes in length or deformation of the spring as it is subjected to a load. This data is crucial for calculating spring properties.
  • User-Friendly Interface: Digital spring testers typically have a user-friendly interface with a digital display, touch screen, or computer interface. This interface allows operators to set up test parameters, monitor testing progress, and view results easily.
  • Programmable Test Sequences: Many digital spring testing machines offer the ability to program and customize test sequences to simulate various loading conditions, such as compression, tension, or torsion, depending on the type of spring being tested.
  • Data Logging and Analysis: These machines often come with built-in data logging capabilities to record force-displacement data over time. Data can be stored for analysis or exported for further processing and documentation.
  • Automatic Calculations: Digital spring testers can automatically calculate essential spring properties, including spring rate (stiffness), maximum load capacity, elastic limit, and more, based on the collected force and displacement data.
  • Safety Features: To ensure operator safety and protect the equipment, digital spring testers may include safety interlocks, emergency stop buttons, and overload protection.
  • Calibration and Traceability: Many digital spring testing machines can be calibrated to ensure accurate measurements, and the calibration process is often traceable to recognized standards.
  • Reporting and Documentation: These machines often provide the capability to generate test reports and certificates, which are important for quality control and compliance with industry standards.
  • Compatibility with Various Spring Types: Digital spring testing machines are designed to accommodate different types and sizes of springs, from small precision springs to large industrial ones.
