Lea Strength Tester (C.S.P)

[Section - Yarn]


	The machine is used for determining the Tensile Strength and Elongation of Cotton, Wool, Jute and other textile materials in form of skein. The strength is determined in such a manner that the test specimen is gripped by two lea holders vertically arranged one below the other and continuously tensile stressed until it breaks. Elongation is also determined at the same time i.e. extension of thespecimen held between the grips during the tensile test. The machine consists of a sturdy metal plate base with load

measuring unit fixed at the top and the driving assembly fitted at the bottom. An electric motor transmits power to the lead screw through gear box. The pendulum rod is connected with the upper lea holder through main boss.
The machine comes in four different capacities viz. 100 LBS, 200 LBS, 300 LBS & 500 LBS. A suitable capacity of Lea Strength Tester may be selected prior to order. If the count is known and the strength is determined with the help of “HIROSHIMA” Lea Strength Tester, by multiplying both the values i.e. COUNT x strength in LBS determines CSP (Count Strength Product).
Below mentioned would be required to carry out the test which are not included with Lea Strength Tester and can be procured separately.
