Dynamic mechanical torsional braid analyzer

The Dynamic Mechanical Torsional Braid Analyzer (TBA) is a computer-controlled thermomechanical analysis instrument used to characterize the viscoelastic properties of polymer materials through free-decay torsional vibration. Based on torsional braid analysis principles, the system measures dynamic modulus and mechanical loss as functions of temperature, stress, strain, and frequency. The instrument adopts digital measurement, automated control, and high-capacity data processing technology to replace traditional manual torsional braid testing, enabling accurate, sensitive, and repeatable evaluation of material viscoelastic behavior using minimal sample quantities.
