Universal Testing Machine

A Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is a versatile material testing system used to evaluate the mechanical properties of materials under tension, compression, bending, and shear. It's used widely in material science, civil, mechanical, and structural engineering.

Below are the typical specifications of a Universal Testing Machine (both general-purpose and standardized per common industrial/laboratory use):

• Load Range: Commonly available in capacities of

  • 10 kN, 20 kN, 50 kN, 100 kN, 200 kN, 400 kN, up to 2000 kN

• Select based on the application: metals, concrete, polymers, etc.

• Type: Dual column (electromechanical or hydraulic)

• Structure: Rigid, high-strength steel or cast iron

• Crosshead Movement: Motorized or hydraulic with adjustable speed

• Workspace: Varies with machine size (vertical clearance, width between columns)

• Electromechanical UTM: Uses servo motor with screw drive

• Hydraulic UTM: Uses hydraulic power pack and actuator for loading

• Load Cell: High-accuracy, strain gauge-based

• Accuracy Class: Typically ±1% or better, conforming to ISO 7500-1 / ASTM E4

• Extensometer: Clip-on or non-contact type for accurate strain measurement

• Resolution: As fine as 0.001 mm

• Travel Range: Depends on sample and test type

• Tensile Grips: Wedge, pneumatic, or hydraulic

• Compression Platens: Hardened steel

• Flexure Fixtures: For 3-point or 4-point bending

• Custom fixtures for shear, peel, tear, etc.

• Manual / Semi-automatic / Fully Computerized

• Software: Windows-based interface for:

  • Test setup (tensile, compressive, flexural, etc.)

  • Real-time plotting (stress-strain curves)

  • Data analysis and report generation
