Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine (Product Code: SLE/ETP/19) is a small-scale, hand-operated tensile tester used to run simple tensile tests on metal specimens up to a maximum load of 20 kN in engineering teaching laboratories. A worm-and-wheel drive with about 400 mm of lead-screw travel, a strain-gauged load cell with peak hold and a sliding digital extension display make it practical lab equipment for technical institutes. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

The tensile test is the foundation of materials science: from one specimen, students obtain yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, elongation and a full load-extension curve. This machine brings that test onto an ordinary laboratory bench, so every group can run its own specimens instead of watching a single large machine from a distance.
Students turn the handwheel steadily, reading load from the digital display and extension from the sliding digital display at regular intervals. The peak-hold function keeps the maximum load on screen after the specimen breaks, so it is never missed. Mark the gauge length before testing, keep the handwheel speed even for a steady strain rate, and make sure everyone nearby wears eye protection in case of sudden fracture.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine. The machine is made and assembled at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, and supplied factory-direct to engineering colleges, polytechnics, dealers and importers. As the manufacturer, the company also handles follow-up orders for ancillaries and spare parts; ask us what you need. See the company profile.

What is the maximum load of the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine?
The Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine carries out simple tensile tests of metal specimens up to a maximum load of 20 kN. It is a small-scale machine that fits on a benchtop in a teaching laboratory.
How is load applied on the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine?
Load on the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine is applied by hand through a worm-and-wheel gearbox driving a lead screw with approximately 400 mm of travel. Low-friction bearings and a large handwheel let the user reach maximum load with minimum effort.
How are load and extension measured?
The Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine measures load with a strain-gauged load cell and a microprocessor-controlled digital display with peak hold, while a sliding digital display measures extension over the entire movement.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine?
Whether a calibration certificate can be supplied with the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine should be discussed with us before ordering. Mention it through the contact page so it is addressed in your quotation.
Who manufactures the Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine?
The Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and spares come from the manufacturer directly.
What should a Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine enquiry include?
A Bench Top Tensile Testing Machine enquiry should include the product code SLE/ETP/19, the quantity, the metals you plan to test, any ancillaries such as the Compression Cage, and the delivery destination in India or abroad.
