Abstract: A mobile testing device is adjustable to perform different types of tension tests. The measuring device can conduct tests on components located on the ground or on elevated components. The measuring device can also carry out tensile strength tests on wire cables, slings, and other components. The measuring device can also be used to calibrate weight-indicating devices and instruments that indicate tensile strength. The positioning and movement of the gantry is achieved by using an assembly of hydraulic cylinders. Different working positions can thus be obtained and more than a trivial amount of physical effort is not required to operate the device.
