Shimpo TNC Series Torque Cap Testers

Quickly measures open and close torque values up to 14.8 ft-lbs (20 N-m) on a wide range of test samples

The TNC digital torque cap testers are used in medical, pharmaceutical, industrial quality control, R&D and countless other torque applications. They provide long operation life and power flexibility with the ability to work from the internal rechargeable battery or included AC adapter. The TNC’s have six modes of operation: “Track” for live readings, “Peak” to record the highest level over a test, “First Peak” which records a reading after a programmed decrease, “Auto Peak” to reset after a period of time, “Auto First Peak” which resets the first peak after a period of time, and “Double Peak” which provides two separate peak readings from programmed decreases. Preset operation with programmable tolerance thresholds for a quick pass/fail test is available in all modes. The analog bar graph on the backlit, reversible LCD aids users by providing the resultant torque’s current position compared to the full-scale range along with the direction of the force. Pass/fail icons produce live test feedback allowing instant determination of the results. Every tester comes standard with USB and RS-232 outputs. The TNC’s software enables the uploading of data and the additional statistical analysis with its auto-calculation of the selected values.
