    There are several types of grips used for tensile testing with different clamping mechanisms. The non-shift wedge grip uses clamping force that increases during testing as the grip face bites into the specimen. The screw type flat grip uses screws to generate clamping force and maintains a fixed grip face position. The pantograph grip uses springs to generate clamping force and allows the grip face to follow reductions in specimen thickness during testing. Proper grips must be selected based on the type of material being tested to effectively clamp the specimen without slipping and avoid premature failure.

    Test Control Method
    1. Stroke Control
    Ex. Metal: 5mm/min Plastic 300mm/min
    2. Load/Stress Control
    Ex. Metal: 60MPa/sec
    3. Strain Control
    Ex. 5%/sec: new material

    ALSC:Automatic Load & Strain Control


    Principal of the Grip
    F=μx N
    μ: coefficient
    of friction

    F>μx N
    N:Test force N:Test force
    The sample will
    slip inside the Grip

    F:Test force
    Increasing μ
    = Increasing Contact area
    Principle of the Grip

    How can you increase


    μ and N?
    F=μx N
    μ: Larger contact area
    N:Test force N:Test force N: Making bigger clamping
    force, by air supply,or
    spring etc.

    F:Test force
    Others methods
    • Sometime classic clamping may not work

    – Fragile samples
    – Thin samples
    – Hard sample >45HRc
    Grips for Shouldered Metal Rod

    • Metal Rod Specimens


    • Very Hard sample

    • Ceramics , glass...
    Pin-Type Grips

    • Metal Thin plate
