TNP series cap torque testers

Shimpo TNP series bench cap torque tester for tightening control

TNP series bench digital torque tester for measuring the opening and closing torque of caps: ranges from 50 N·cm to 10 N·m, HI-GO-LO LED comparator and memory for 1000 readings for quality control of tightening.

The TNP series is a precision bench digital torque tester for measuring opening and closing torque values in numerous applications. As a cap torque analyser, the TNP repeatably determines the closing and release torque of bottles; it is used in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors, in industrial quality control and in research and development.

The large memory can store 1000 data points, including the average, maximum and minimum values; the HI-GO-LO LED comparator allows large batches to be checked to ensure product quality. Selectable modes (opening, closing, average) clockwise or anticlockwise, 4-digit LCD display, accuracy ±0.5% F.S. Powered by rechargeable NiMH battery or AC adapter, USB connection and Digitorq software. Robust die-cast aluminium housing.

Features

TNP example of torque measurement on a bottle

The HI-GO-LO LED comparator (green/red) gives an immediate result against the programmed tolerances, ideal for testing large batches. The removable clamping pins adapt the tester to the sample diameter (10–190 mm); the Digitorq software allows statistical analysis and graphs in a spreadsheet.

Frequently asked questions

What is the TNP?

It is a bench digital torque tester (cap torque analyser) that repeatably measures the opening and closing torque of bottles and vials, with ranges from 50 N·cm to 10 N·m.

What is the HI-GO-LO comparator for?

It is an LED comparator (green/red) that compares the measurement with the programmed tolerances, giving an immediate result: useful for checking large batches in production.

What sample diameters does it accept?

From 10 to 190 mm, thanks to the removable clamping pins that adapt the tester to the size of the sample.

How are the data analysed?

Via the USB connection and the Digitorq software, with a memory of 1000 readings (average, maximum and minimum) for statistical analysis and graphs.
