Fully-automated pull-test machine
Professional quality assurance
The PRO pull test machine is a basic, compact, yet elegant and incredibly useful tool used to measure the tensile strength of converted printing blankets. With intuitive controls, specifically designed blanket bar clamps, and a temperature control function used to replicate the actual printing environment, the PRO pull test machine is an indispensable tool for the proactive converter. Whether you use it for internal controls, process optimization, or batch traceability, the PRO pull test machine helps bring a new level of standardization and perfection to your production. Archive results for reference and comparative analysis or send them with your blanket shipments for customer reassurance.

Manual pull-test machine
The economical solution
For a more economical alternative to our fully-automated pull test machine, we are proud to offer this manual version. Simply secure the blanket and the bar in the on-board clamps and use a standard wrench to slowly rotate the bolt at the bottom of the unit. The centered gauge will accurately display the ongoing tension until blanket destruction.
