Aluminum Foil Breaking Strength Test

Aluminum foil is used in a wide range of industries such as food, pharmaceutical, chemicals, electrical equipment and industry.

In this video, the breaking strength (easiness of tearing) of aluminum foil for food is measured. Both ends of the aluminum foil are gripped and pulled until it breaks, then the peak force represents the breaking strength. To grip the thin and fragile aluminum foil firmly without tear, a flat chuck with parallel claws (optional) is used . In addition, the optional graphing software shows the entire force transition until the aluminum foil breaks, which helps you analyze the breaking strength.

The breaking strength of aluminum foil for other industries can also be tested.
