Sauter TVL Test Stand

The Sauter TVL Test Stand is a manually operated force test stand designed to improve the accuracy, repeatability and consistency of compression and tensile force testing. By providing controlled movement and stable positioning of the test sample, the TVL test stand helps minimise operator influence, making it suitable for routine quality control, product inspection and laboratory testing.

Compatible with a wide range of Sauter force gauges, the TVL offers a practical solution for engineers, manufacturers and testing laboratories that require reliable force measurement without the complexity of a motorised system. Its robust construction and precise mechanical adjustment allow controlled application of force during both compression and pull testing across a variety of materials and components.

The TVL is suitable for testing springs, plastics, packaging, rubber products, electronic components and manufactured assemblies. Whether used for incoming inspection, production quality assurance or product development, it provides a dependable platform for obtaining repeatable force measurement results. Before selecting a test stand, users should confirm compatibility with their force gauge, sample dimensions and the required testing capacity.

FAQs

What force gauges are compatible with the Sauter TVL Test Stand?

The TVL Test Stand is designed for use with compatible Sauter force gauges. Always check the maximum force capacity, mounting dimensions and gauge compatibility before selecting a test stand.

Can the test stand perform both compression and tensile testing?

Yes. When used with suitable fixtures and a compatible Sauter force gauge, the test stand can be used for both compression and tensile force testing.

What applications is this test stand suitable for?

The test stand is suitable for quality control, product development, incoming inspection, production testing, material testing and laboratory force measurement applications.

Why use a manual force test stand instead of handheld testing?

A manual test stand provides controlled movement and improved repeatability, helping reduce operator influence and produce more consistent force measurement results.
