Carpenter Installs New 1.2 Million LB. Test Machine

Carpenter Rigging of San Francisco, CA has just completed installation of their new 1,200,000 million pound, 120 ft. horizontal test machine. Built by Chant Engineering, it features elongation measurement while having cycle and break testing capabilities from a low of 150,000 lbs. force to a high range of 1.2 million lbs. force. The machine is calibrated to ASME-E4 standards and includes updated software which prints a certificate with a graph tracing the actual low value to the high value of the load test.
