Mecmesin debuts digital torque tester

-- Test & Measurement World, 2/4/2008 8:43:00 AM

Mecmesin, manufacturer of force and torque testing equipment, has announced the launch of the Tornado digital torque tester. The Tornado is designed to assess the low-level torques associated with small rotating components in automotive and other applications. The Tornado provides for pass/fail alerting with five programmable memory settings. It includes a facility to characterize the two torque peaks associated with tamper-evident closures, it has an onboard memory that stores up to 500 readings, and it includes a bi-directional data interface for easy export of results.

Designed for laboratory or production use, the compact and portable Tornado features a water-resistant casing fabricated in non-painted polypropylene. Four capacity models are available, including 13 lbf.-in., 26 lbf.-in., 50 lbf.-in., and 90 lbf.-in. An adjustable mounting plate grips the base of a sample, presenting it for application of clockwise or counter-clockwise torque by hand. Five dedicated function keys on the tester’s membrane keypad provide quick access to the most commonly used functions.
