Durometer Hardness Testers
-
IMADA, Inc., provides accurate measuring devices for every need. Some of the many high-quality instruments we manufacture are durometers. Durometers are important to the manufacturing sector because they measure the hardness of materials. These include normal and hard rubber, as well as soft and hard plastics, by assessing the resistance to indentation of polymers, elastomers, and rubbers. They do this by applying pressure to the surface of an object via an indentor and measuring the level of resistance. The results are expressed in terms of the Shore hardness scale, which varies based on the materials.

Product
Manual Material Testing
-
Is ideal for tests requiring very small movement, like switch tests. The tester also features a reversible base plate, allowing the tester to be used on uneven or obstructed surfaces. The highly visible EL display and plain language menus in eight languages make programming fast and easy. Both force and displacement values are displayed plus user-selectable data; high/low setpoints, peak, memory data, etc.

Product
Rotational Friction Torque
-
Tests the smoothness of rotation and components of small precision motors, such as, gearbox, bearings, oil seals, etc. The motorized tester turns at a set rotational speed based upon the model. See the specifications table for more details. The tester can be used to measure torque in CW and CCW directions.

Food Testers
-
These automated food testers are designed for clean, smooth trouble-free operation.Food Rheology testers automatically test firmness, elasticity or viscosity using a load cell combined with programmable movement control. The easy-to-use program dial and menu screens control probe positioning and speed. Select from three movement patterns. The USB port streams 1,000 force data/second to the Force Data Analysis Software (included).

Tension Testers
-
Tension testers come in a variety of options. Lever-operated testers allow for quick and repeatable tension testing, making them ideally suited for measurement in high-throughput environments. The wheel-operated tensions tester allows for more precise control, which is critical whenever testing delicate materials. Our motorized tension tester provides consistent test speeds providing more accurate and repeatable results.

Handheld Durometers
-
Imada offers a number of options for handheld durometers. These devices are used to test the hardness of materials for quality control or comparison purposes. For example, automotive manufacturers may want to test tires to make sure they are capable of resisting punctures. Products made with foam rubber may be tested with a durometer to ensure they are soft enough to be handled safely by children.

Motorized Material Testers
-
Motorized force/displacement testers record both force and displacement. Programming is facilitated by the unique program dial using plain language menu screens.

Product
Breakaway Torque Tester
-
Automatic Breakaway Torque Tester can be used to verify the actual tightened torque of a bolt. Torque controlled power tools are set to apply consistent torque, but fasteners are not necessarily tightened to that value if the tools are out of calibration. Breakaway torque tests require a skilled, experienced operator to sense when the bolt begins to breakaway.
