The Bursting Strength Tester is designed to find bursting strength of
geotextile/fabric/leather/paper/paper board. A test specimen is held between
two annular clamps under sufficient pressure to minimize slippage. The upper
clamping surface which is in contact with the test specimens has a
continuous spiral grooves. A circular diaphragm of rubber is clamped between
the lower clamping plate & pressure cylinder so that before the
diaphragm is stretched by pressure underneath it the center of its upper
surface is below the plane of the clamping surface. The equipment is fitted
with a motor driven cam mechanism, which increases fluid displacement on the
lower side of the diaphragm at a specified rate. The equipment is fitted
with an arrangement, which automatically brings down the pressure and stops
the motor on completion of the test cycle. A maximum reading type pressure
gauge gives the bursting pressure. The equipment is raggedly designed to
give a long & trouble free life.
