Selection of an attachment is very important, and it will bring out the full-capability of the testing machine. Almost every IMADA testing machine can measure the both "tensile" and "compression". Therefore the test of "tension", "compression", "bending", "stripping", and so on is possible by selecting the correct attachment for the testing purpose.
We have more special attachement besides the items listed in this web site.
We design the attachment which meets your requirement. Please feel free to contact us and let us know your requirement.

¡Caution when choosing the right attachment
› Testing load has to be lower than the maximum load of the attachment.
› The weight of the upper attachment has to be lower than the 10% of the maximum load of the load cell.If the maximum load of the load-cell is very small, it is recommended to adjust the testing machine with the attachment attached.
› Make sure the size of the connecting rod is correct. Chart below show the size of the screw for upper/lower attachment.
› If you plan to test unique and special materials, it is highly recommended to perform the sample testing to choose the right attachement.

¡Regarding the mounting of the attachment
It is necessary to mount the attachment to our Testing Machine. And to bring out the full-capability of the testing machine, it is necessary to choose the right attachment. Therefore, attachment needs to be selected from our list or manufactured by customers. Below is the chart that shows a mating relations of our attachment. Please refer to the following charts when you mount the attachment or when you manufacture the attachment by yourself.

œMounting Upper Attachment
Upper attachment is to be mounted by screwing it into the load cell. Size of the screws are as follows.
Max. Load Less than 500N 1kN to 10kN 20kN 30kN to 50kN 100kN

*Size of screw for the Push-Pull Scale and Digital Force Gauge with the maximum load range from 1kN to 3kN is M10P1.5.
*Mounting the small max. load attatchment to the Testing Machine with the large amount of max. load requires reducing connecting screw.


œMounting Lower Attachment
Surface table is pre-installed for our Testing Machines and Push-Pull Stands. T-shaped channel is designed to mount the lower attachment by using 2 pairs of T-nuts and bolts. Shape of the T-shaped channel and the size of the bolts are as follows;
