Wine Industry Torque and Extraction Test Systems
Mark-10 Cork Extraction System
The cork extraction test system consists of:
- Mark-10 ESM 303 Motorized test stand
- Mark-10 Series 4 Force gauge
- Special Wine Bottle Holder
Having correct cork fit is critical to ensuring against the product leaking during shipment and storage. Testing the peak cork extraction force verifies the correct cork fit allowing wine bottlers to supply a user-friendly bottle to open.

Simplified Screw Cap Torque Test System
The Marl-10 Series TT01 Cap Torque Testers measure the application and removal torque of bottle caps up to 100 lbFin [11.5 Nm]. The adjustable posts effectively grip a extensive range of container sizes & shapes and for unique profiles optional flat & adjustable jaws are available.
The Marl-10 Series TT01 Cap Torque Testers are designed for use in production & laboratory environments constructed with a aluminum design providing a simple & intuitive operation.
Bottling Line Force checking system
The Mark-10 Series 4 digital force gauges are ideal for compression force & tension testing in virtually every industry, with test capabilities from 0.12 lb to 500 lb (0.5 N to 2500 N). Producing precise measurements under a extensive range of test conditions the gauges provide a sampling rate of 3,000 Hz, with accuracy is ±0.2% of full scale & resolution of 1/2000.
Simple menu navigation with large, backlit graphics LCD presents quick access to the gauges’ many features & configurable parameters with large, easy to read characters.
Data transfer to PC & other data collectors via RS-232, USB, Mitutoyo (Digimatic), & analog outputs.
Bi-directional data transfer with configurable communication protocols including Mitutoyo, Analog & RS-232 allowing the AFG to control data loggers and test stands.
Vineyard Wire Tension Check System
The Fastest Cable Tension Meter
Measuring cable tension, including placement and removal from the cable can be accomplished in under five seconds with the Dillon Quick-Check . Operating the Dillon Quick-Check only requires selecting one of the fifteen different wire sizes and types stored in memory without the need to consult complex lookup tables & conversion charts. The graphically displays the current and target tensions for extremely quick setting of line tension. Current and target tensions are displayed graphically in Check-Tensioning mode for exceedingly rapid setting of line tension. Everything is quick including the infrequent battery changes.
