All TensileMill machines are designed with ease-of-use and ease-of-maintenance in mind. By keeping the machine clean, checking and adding fluids as necessary and running the system consistently, you will maximize the life cycle of your system. Contact us today to learn more.

The standard requirements are 220V 1ph VAC 20A. The additional requirement for this round specimen preparation machine is air for the tailstock of 90 psi.

The Industrial Upgrade system provide the optimal output when a section of the starting blank material is in the chuck and the other end is supported by the tailstock. It is important to have enough material to hold onto by the chuck. We recommend about 1/2 - ¾" length. We especially recommend a little extra length for threaded end specimens.

Round Stock:
If you are working with round starting blanks for tensile sample preparation, the system can accommodate specimens up to 4" diameter and 12" length.

Square Stock:
If you are preparing starting blanks from square stock, the system can accommodate 1 x 1 by 12" dimensions. Additionally, our square chuck can comfortably hold on to specimens that are not 100% square. Minor deviations typically occur when an operator cuts a large sample on a band saw without precision instruments. In efforts to guarantee that our systems are the right fit for you, we always encourage our clients to send their samples to us to be prepared to give you the ultimate peace of mind. This service is completely free.

Irregular Stock:
Should your specimens have an irregular stock shape, we would require a picture to provide a custom solution to meet your short- and long-term tensile sample preparation needs. Contact us today to learn more.

Software Support and Spare Parts:
One of the unique values offered by TensileMill CNC Inc is that all of TensileMill CNC machines are designed to be easy and cheap to maintain. The spare parts primarily refer to consumables (inserts and fixtures) and these are virtually always in stock. We will supply you with an adequate amount to start with and normally throw in a few extras as promotions. Alternatively, you may buy them elsewhere, because they are non-proprietary. The only benefit of purchasing with TensileMill is that we know the ones we supply will last you longer and do a better job.

Above all, you will not have to worry about any unforeseen expenses associated with Software because all software upgrades are free for life.

Machine Maintenance
The units come standard with an operational manual to help with your maintenance schedule. The unit is very typical and requires very low maintenance. Our standard recommendation is to run the machine every couple of days.

Consumables:
The TensileTurn systems have the following consumables:

• Fixtures and Inserts:
  The unit comes standard with all the fixtures and inserts required for your specific types of material. This is part of our Turnkey Package with the main system. Additional inserts and fixtures are typically provided in the BONUS section of the quotation.
• Coolant:
  The system comes standard with a recirculating water based coolant system. It is a water based coolant formulated based on the specific materials being cut. We recommend the following brands for tensile specimen preparation and other CNC machining requirements: Cim Cool, Hocut, and Blaser. All can be purchased locally.

TensileMill offers a 1 day standard installation & training session for our clients. Due to the nature of the lathe systems for tensile sample preparation, we recommend at least one day to ensure that all operators are fully immersed in the use of the TensileSoft™ - our tensile sample preparation software, for the easiest, and most effective results. TensileMill CNC Inc. is all about on-going improvement and therefore savings for our clients. Training and installation videos may be requested to identify if a formal training would still be required. In our best experience, CNC machinists with moderate to advance experience do not require formal training and installation. They can get away with a remote session over Skype or even a phone call. Learn more by connecting with our CNC consultants today for the optimal solution for your training and installation needs.
