A universal testing machine (UTM), also known as a universal tester,[1] materials testing machine or materials test frame, is used to test the tensile strength and compressive strength of materials. An earlier name for a tensile testing machine is a tensometer. The "universal" part of the name reflects that it can perform many standard tensile and compression tests on materials, components, and structures (in other words, that it is versatile)."

Gester will introduce the universal testing machine in detail(from application, Feature, standards etc)

A. Application

Univelsal tester is designed for conducting tensile, compression, bending, shearing, bonding strength, peeling, tearing and other tests for shoes, rubber, plastic, leather, metal, nylon line, fabric, paper, aviation, packaging, construction, petrifaction, electrician, vehicle and other materials. It is a basic equipment of quality control, receiving inspection, physical test, mechanics research, material development.

B. Feature

1.The power system: servo motor and servo drivers and worm gear and rod reducer and ball screw.

2.Control system: adopting Pulse Command control method, it will be more accuracy and easy to control.

3.The speed control range: 0.001-1000mm/min.

4.The intermediate plate adjustment is both fast coarse and slow fine-tuning.

5.it will return to original site and save automatically ater testing.

6.Data transmission mode: RS232 transmission.

7.This instrument can realize constant speed, positioning, constant power, constant stroke control mode and multi-level control mode which can meet the test requirements of the ordinary.

8.Testing space: test width is 400 mm (standard)

9.All plate walking space: 1200 mm (excluding fixture, according to the customer requirements).

10.The entire displacement: the encoder is 1800 P/R, it can improve 4 times accuracy

Using the LINE DRIVE encoder strong anti-interference ability displacement resolution 0.001 mm.

11.Safety device: overload emergency stop device, up and down stroke limit device, leakage automatic blackout system, automatic breakpoint stop function.

4. Protection measures

This universal material testing machine adopt many kinds of protection measures:

a.Beam’s limit cams protecting device

b.Clamp touch avoid protecting device

c.Set up protection on displacement & load software

d.Sensor overload protection

e.Sample load software protection

f.Overcurrent & overvoltage protection

This universal tensile testing machine adopt open system: user can edit test program, data analysis formula, test report according to test material’s category, character and test methods requires.
