| Proceq SA, Switzerland, provides the industry with a wide range of testing equipment for quality checking of materials (building material, metal, paper, wood), as well as instruments and tools for pre-stressing techniques, bearings and joint systems for civil engineering structures. Of particular interest, the company offers its wire tension meters, models SM 55C1/SM 150C1, that are designed to measure and control tensile forces in pre-stressing wires, as well as strands in the pre-stressing concrete technique.
The model SM 55 C1 is designed for diameters up to 7mm and tensile forces up to 53kN, while the model SM 150 C1 is suitable for diameters up to 12.7mm and tensile forces up to 145kN. Both instruments allow calibration for up to five different diameters. They are also suitable for force measuring of pre-stressing cables of frames, guy ropes on masts, etc.
