Tension Meter DX2-EDM
5 Tension ranges from 50 - 2000 cN to 200 - 4000 cN
For ideal wire tension to increase the accuracy of produced workparts and to optimize the machine delay
Tension meter DX2-EDM
Special Features
- The analog display shows changing and fluctuating tensions fast and enables an optimal process adjustment
- Easy to operate
- Roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material
- Hand-held unit with built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for continuous tension measurement
- Special finger support located on the rear side reduces the effort to move the outer roller assembly
![]() | Finger Support: We recommend mounting a finger support for higher tension ranges |

Other tension ranges and measuring head widths available on request.
Other units of measure available, such as g.
* Depending on model, either width of wire guide or outer distance between outside guide rollers
** Suitable for 95 % of applications - PA = Polyamide Monofilament
![]() | Material thickness compensator: For better accuracy the material to be measured or a similar material with the same diameter should be inserted (only model DX2-4000-EDM). |
Calibration to customized material:
If process material differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity or shape, special calibration using customer supplied samples is recommended. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.

SCHMIDT scales are manufactured according to the most stringent quality requirements. Printed scales are not used. Instead, each scale is individually marked for the instrument involved. This ensures highest quality. Our special procedure makes it possible to provide tension meters
- calibrated to custom supplied material
- fine tuned to a specific tension range
- other units of measure such as g
