Computerised twin-screw UTM in Servo & Vector models — tensile, compression & flexural testing as per ASTM D638, ASTM D695, ASTM D790 and ISO 527.
The Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is a computerised twin-screw machine, available in Servo and Vector models, used to determine the tensile and elongation properties of materials as per ASTM D638 and ISO 527, compression as per ASTM D695 and flexural (three-point bending) as per ASTM D790. It is suitable for checking all types of polymers, compounds, composite materials, fibre-reinforced plastics (FRP) and other polymeric materials.
Control is handled by a 32-bit microcontroller with a 4 line × 20 character display, providing highly accurate position control across a wide speed range, with auto-stop and auto-reverse and pre-programmable tests for Tensile, Flexural, Peel, Bond, Compression and Cyclic endurance based on load, travel or time. All results — including peak and break load, elongation, tensile strength, flexural stress, compression strength and the secant, tangent and flexural moduli — are displayed directly on the controller and through the PC software, with a numeric printout facility and selectable units.
Available in both Servo & VFD (Vector) options.
