Tension Meter

Tension Meter. Tensitron, Inc.'s association with the wire EDM industry, dates back to the original American prototypes for this technology. Specific EDM wire calibrations are entered into these meters to insure utmost accuracy for each wire type. Our TX-5EDM digital meters have selectable values that mimic the calibration protocol for the Wire EDM machine and therefore help to insure maximum accuracy of wire tension throughout its entire tension range.

As a general rule of thumb, the broad scale wire tension range (.004 - .012 dia. wire) for EDM machinery is approximately 200 -1800 g. We recommend our Model No. TX-5EDM that has Special Calibrations for .01 - .03 mm EDM wires; additional custom sizes can easily be added to the menu. All calibrated values are fully traceable to National Standards. Tensitron can typically ship immediately upon receipt of your order.
