The Cambridge Engineered Solutions Tug Tester measuring system is designed to obtain accurate tension readings on turn and spiral cage conveyor belts commonly used during the cooling and freezing stages of bakery and food processing. The system, which uploads data and tracks changes on a PC, provides daily plant monitoring. Tug Tester measures tangential tension by tier as belts cycle through systems. It can be used on various belt loads up to 1,000 lbs., with measurements provided every two seconds for up to 20 hours at -10F. Tug Tester is approved for use at operating temperatures from -40F to 120F.
