******************************************************************************************************************
The Software is astonishing! We particularly enjoy the library of common standards. In our initial
discussion of technical specifications, we asked for the machine to be programmed for the ASTM E8
standard based on our customer needs at that time. We were pleasantly surprised to find the software
was equipped with many ASTM, ISO, JIS, and DIN standards. This came particularly handy when our
recently acquired customers needed us to prepare them with tensile samples according to ISO
standards.
Denso Manufacturing and Denso Automotive Group
******************************************************************************************************************
Happy with our investment. We received a better value at a more competitive price. Before buying, we
sourced 3 quotations, including TensileMill. TensileMill met all technical needs and had the added
value of the easy to use software interface. The unit was lower priced relative to the competition and
fit well in our budget.
Extruded Aluminum Corporation
******************************************************************************************************************
We specialize in part production with inconel metals. Our materials are upwards of 50HRC and require
a tensile tester with 5000 kN capacity. Daily we prepare roughly 30-40 samples. We were out there
looking for a robust and user-friendly machine to be operated by our junior engineers in our new R&D
division. We had sent our samples to TensileMill to be tested before making the final purchase. The
guys at TensileMIll turned our samples, made a video of the process and sent the sample back to us
for inspection. We were very impressed. TensileMIll CNC MINI was the solution for our needs. Over
the years, this machine had proven itself over and over to be both powerful and reliable. Since we
purchased the MINI, our capacity had increased to roughly 50 samples per day. After months of
rigorous work with the unit, the only maintenance expense we have are the endmills. We had looked
into purchasing them with other suppliers, however they last about a third of the time that TensileMill’s
endmills do, yet the cost is about the same.
