Adhesion and Release Testers

High Speed Release Tester

High Speed Release

Production speed testing of PSA release liners is simple with the durable, easy-to-use High Speed Release Tester from ChemInstruments. Together with the included EZ-Lab system software, the release tester determines profiles of release liners in a matter of minutes. Whether trying to determine high-speed application characteristics or converting properties, this valuable adhesive testing tool will provide insight into the performance properties of release liners. This machine was designed specifically to comply with the procedures set forth in FINAT test method FTM 4.

Model Number: HSR-1000

Data Acquisition System

The ChemInstruments electronic data acquisition system is a state-of-the-art microprocessor controlled force measurement package that combines accuracy with ease of use. This system simultaneously controls test motion, reads the force of a test from a load cell, digitally displays it and also stores that data in its memory.

  • Records 400 data points during a test interval, adjusting the sampling rate according to the selected test speed
  • Displays the average, high and low measured force results immediately upon completion of a test
  • Stores data from up to 20 tests, allowing for quick review of previously recorded values
  • Export data by RS-232 connection to a local PC with our EZ-Lab software
  • Displays test values in grams, kilograms, ounces, pounds or Newtons

EZ-Lab Compatible

Remote setup, operational control and enhanced data collection are all possible when coupled with our EZ-Lab data management software. This application requires an external PC. (See more information about the EZ-Lab product)
