UNIVERSAL TESTING MACHINE (UTM)

Tensile Testing machine is used to test the mechanical properties (tension, compression,  bending strength etc.) of a given test specimen by exerting tensile, compressive or  transverse stresses. The machine has been named so because of the wide range of tests it  can perform over different kind of materials such as metallic materials, plastic, rubber,  paper, etc. Different types test according to its application of the material, like peel test,  flexural test, tension test, bend test, friction test, spring test etc. It can be helped to deter- mine important material characteristics, e.g. elongation, yield strength or tensile strength,  peel strength, adhesion property testing, flexural properties testing and tear testing of the  samples. Various models are called Single column table-top type low capacity (5-50kN)  instruments and Dual column floor standing type medium capacity machine (50-100kN)  and the Servo Hydraulic Universal Testing Machines with high capacity (100-1000kN).

Universal Testing Machine is calibrated as per ASTM E4, ISO 7500-1 international standard to perform tests and confirm with major international testing standards tests  such as ASTM, ISO, BS, JIS, GB, and many others.
