With a maximum force capacity of 1 kN or 5 kN (depending on the model you choose), our Universal Testing Machines are designed to perform tensile, compression, bending, shearing, or peeling tests of light or very light materials.
The single column testing framework incorporates a crosshead guidance system to provide side loading of the sample under test. As standard, these materials testing machine are supplied with a laptop and METROTEST materials testing software.
By simply connecting with different accessories, they can test various materials and components, such as adhesives, plastics, ropes, textiles, and threads to match your needs in quality control and research. Other benefits of this Electromechanical one column testing framework include:
• Meets or exceeds the requirements of the following standards: ISO 7500-1, ASTM-E4, EN 10002-2, BS 1610, DIN 51221, and ISO 6892.
• Admits overloads of 120% of the nominal force without affecting its measurement or operating precision, giving the frame a great robustness and safety of correct operation under intensive work.
• Large workspace & test area for a wide variety of grips and fixtures.
• Ergonomically designed, robust, and precise.
• Computerised control system allows for closed-loop control of parameters such as test force,
specimen deformation and crossbar travel, etc.
• The system realizes in real time on the PC screen test diagrams, test curves and creation of test reports.
• Closed-loop control through the METROTEST test program makes it possible to carry out cyclical tests.
• Modular design makes it easier to upgrade software in the future.
• Vast choice of grips and fixtures available — AML Instruments have the ability to manufacture bespoke solutions.
