Shanghai Fastener and Welding Material Technology Research Center Co.,Ltd. ("the center"), a subsidiary of Shanghai Electric, successfully commissioned its WAW-6000L horizontal tensile testing machine. It is the first large tensile tester of large bolts available for third-party testing.

Equipped with an advanced micro electro-hydraulic servo control system, the tester highlights smart programmable control over such parameters as force, displacement, deformation, and speed. At the same time, it allows a series of functions like automatic data analysis and processing, report, data upload, and big data experiment. As the tester comes into service, the center will see a boost in its testing capacity for large fasteners.
