Mecmesin has launched a new horizontal friction peel and tear tester. The FPT-H1 is designed for ease of use and supplied pre-programmed for all the main industry standard friction-testing methods for plastic films, paper and board.

Suitable also for peel quality testing of labels, seals and closures, and for perforations and tear strength of sheet materials, the FPT-H1 offers flexibility and high throughput. Affordable for all users, it is robust and reliable in demanding test environments. With Mecmesin’s powerful Emperor™ software for control, data acquisition and analysis, the FPT-H1 is also ideally suited to detailed laboratory testing and extension into other tensile testing.

Optional features include an integrated sled lift with guide rail system to meet ISO 15359 (friction, paper and board), and a heated plane for ASTM D1894 (plastic films).
