Drop Weight Tear Tester (DWTT) Supplier for Saudi Arabia
MCS Mechatronic has built drop weight tear testers in Kolhapur, India, since 1999, and supplies PLC-controlled DWTT machines to line-pipe mills, plate producers and pipeline testing labs in Saudi Arabia. The DWTT shows whether pipeline steel fractures in a ductile or brittle way at a given temperature, a key acceptance test for gas and oil pipelines.
Vision 2030 has turned Saudi Arabia into one of the busiest construction and manufacturing markets in the world. Giga-projects, new industrial cities in Jubail and Yanbu, local steel and line-pipe production, and SASO's tighter conformity rules all mean that more material has to be tested before it is used, and more of that testing is moving in-house. Every major pipeline project specifies DWTT results, which makes the test essential for pipe and plate suppliers.

Three automatic models with hydraulic shock absorbers cover standard and heavy-wall pipe.

DWTT Specimens & Machine Details
DWTT Applications in Saudi Arabia
Our machines are used by steel rebar mills, line-pipe and oil and gas suppliers, petrochemical plants, cement and ready-mix producers, cable makers and third-party testing laboratories. Typical Saudi applications include:
Line-pipe mills
DWTT on API 5L pipe for gas and oil pipelines
Plate and coil producers
Fracture behaviour of pipeline-grade plate and strip
Pipeline projects
Material qualification for new transmission lines
Third-party testing labs
Independent DWTT for pipe buyers
Research institutes
Low-temperature fracture research
Steel qualification
Ductile-to-brittle transition studies with chilled specimens
Testing Standards Supported
MCS DWTT machines test specimens to ASTM E436, API RP 5L3, ASTM E208 and DIN EN 10274, the methods specified for line pipe and pipeline steel.
In Saudi Arabia, product conformity is overseen by SASO (Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization), and laboratories that issue accredited reports work under SAAC (Saudi Accreditation Center). The touch-screen panel shows drop height, energy and speed for every test, which can be recorded on your test certificates.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you export drop weight tear testing machines to Saudi Arabia?
Yes. MCS Mechatronic manufactures PLC-controlled DWTT machines in Kolhapur, India, and exports them to Saudi Arabia through ports such as Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdulaziz Port, Dammam.
Which standards does the MCS DWTT meet?
It tests specimens according to ASTM E436, API RP 5L3, ASTM E208 and DIN EN 10274.
Which energy capacities are available?
Automatic PLC-controlled models are offered at 30,000 J, 55,000 J and 80,000 J. The right capacity depends on your pipe wall thickness and grade.
Can specimens be cooled before testing?
Yes. A deep freezer that cools specimens down to -80 °C and a hydraulic notch-making press are available as optional auxiliary equipment.
Do you supply machines that match SASO requirements?
SASO technical regulations adopt international test methods such as ISO and ASTM. MCS DWTT machines test to ASTM E436, API RP 5L3, ASTM E208 and DIN EN 10274, and the drop height, energy and speed of each test can be recorded for your SASO or client records. Product registration through the SABER platform is normally handled by the importer, and we provide the technical documents you need for it.
Can the machine run on the power supply used in Saudi Arabia?
The supply voltage depends on the model. Saudi Arabia's three-phase supply runs at 60 Hz, so please mention your site voltage and frequency in your enquiry so we can confirm the right electrical configuration.
