Electromechanical Universal Tensile and Compression Testing Machine

The Electromechanical Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is the workhorse of modern material laboratories. Powered by a high-precision AC servo motor and a backlash-free ball screw system, this device performs tensile, compression, bending, and peeling tests with exceptional accuracy. It features a closed-loop control system and C3-class load cells, making it ideal for testing polymers, metals, composites, and rubber in full compliance with ISO, ASTM, and DIN standards.

Description

Universal Testing Machine (UTM): The Ultimate Material Analyzer

From the steel used in skyscrapers to the polymers used in medical devices, every material must prove its strength before use. The Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is designed to stretch, compress, and bend materials to their breaking point. Our electromechanical servo-driven model offers the precise control needed to capture critical data points like Yield Strength, Modulus of Elasticity, and Elongation at Break.

Advanced Servo-Electric Drive System

Unlike hydraulic systems that can be noisy and less precise at low speeds, our electromechanical design uses:

  • AC Servo Motor & Driver: Provides consistent torque and speed control across a wide range (0.001 to 500 mm/min).
  • Ball Screw Mechanism: Ensures smooth crosshead movement with zero backlash, essential for testing brittle materials or thin films.
  • C3-Class Load Cells: High-accuracy force sensors with a combined error of less than 0.02%, ensuring your data is reliable.

Versatility for Every Industry

This single machine can adapt to hundreds of testing applications by simply changing the grips (jaws):

  • Tensile & Compression: Standard tests for plastics, rubber, and metals.
  • Cyclic & Relaxation: Advanced testing for studying material fatigue and viscoelastic behavior.
  • High-Temperature Testing: Optional attachment of a thermal furnace allows for testing up to 1000°C, ideal for superalloys and heat-resistant composites.

The Importance of Sample Preparation

The accuracy of a tensile test is heavily dependent on the quality of the test specimen. “Dog-bone” samples must have smooth edges free of notches. We strongly recommend preparing your polymer specimens using our Laboratory CNC Milling Machine to ensure standard compliance and repeatable results.

International Standards Compliance

Our UTM software comes pre-loaded with test methods compliant with major global standards:

  • ISO 527 & ASTM D638 (Tensile properties of plastics).
  • ISO 37 & ASTM D412 (Tensile properties of rubber).
  • ISO 6892 (Tensile testing of metallic materials).
