The Design and Experiment of Levelness-Adjustable Clamping Device for Cable Gland

Abstract:

This paper introduces a design of testing machine that could apply to the clamping tensile test for explosion-proof cable gland and a clamping tensile test for explosion-proof cable that based on this machine. The tension conduction system composed by wire rope and pulley supplies the test device for cable gland with tension by using standard weights counterweight. In order to ensure test precision, the testing machine loading platform can translate along the horizontal orthogonal direction X, Y and rotate around the X axis to adjust the sample space coordinates. The stress-strain sensor can measure the tension value, and the amount of displacement of the specimen can be measured by dial indicator. This paper focuses on the levelness-adjustable system and test methods.
