Tensioning system for sieve shakers
Increasing emphasis on calibration and verification of test equipment makes it important to verify the correct tension in sieve shakers
In today's research or control labs, sieving analysis must be conducted and documented much more accurately and reproducibly than in the past ISO 9001, laboratory certification, EC safety directives, stricter in-house quality standards, etc, now require measuring and test equipment which can be calibrated and validated, boasts complex software and achieves precise results

The Pulverisette 6 mono mill from Fritsch will grind samples down to less than 1µm, and can be used for mixing, homogenising, emulsifying and alloying
The Analysette 3 sieve shakers manufactured by Fritsch meet these requirements and, says the company, have become small high-tech instruments compared with earlier models and some competing products.
It says the most significant technological gap has now been closed with the TorqueMaster sieve tensioning system.
This enables an automatic, reproducible tensioning of the sieve stack on the sieve shaker.
Although the tensioning has a great influence on the result, it is relatively undefined in conventional systems.
The unique properties of the TorqueMaster brings constant, reproducible tensioning on the sieve stack through the use of a high-quality electrical tool which results the calibration of sieve tensioning as part of the monitoring of test equipment according to ISO 9001.
TorqueMaster can be attached and used with any sieve shaker, not just those made by Fritsch. Request a free brochure from Fritsch ...
