Computerised Servo Control Universal Testing Machine
A Computerised servo control universal testing machine (UTM) is a sophisticated piece of equipment used to determine the mechanical properties of materials.
In fact, it is the modern, high-precision evolution of traditional mechanical testers.
What’s more, its key advantage lies in its ability to perform a wide range of tests… For example, it can handle tensile, compression, and bending tests on everything from metals and plastics to textiles and cable.
Computer & Software:
- This is the user interface and data hub. Modern software provides:*Intuitive test setup and method creation.
- Real-time graphical display of the stress-strain curve.
- Automated calculation of material properties (Yield Strength, Tensile Strength, Modulus of Elasticity, Elongation, etc.)
Load Cell:
- A highly accurate that measures the force applied to the specimen.
Extensometer:
- An optional but crucial device that clamps directly onto the specimen to measure elastic elongation and strain with extreme accuracy.
Drive System:
- Servo Motor: An electric motor that provides precise and smooth motion. It is highly efficient, quiet, and clean.
Ball Screw:
- Translates the rotary motion of the servo motor into precise linear motion of the crosshead.
Wide Range of Control Modes:
- Can seamlessly control tests based on Position, Speed, or Force, and can switch between them during a single test. Comprehensive data storage, reporting, and export capabilities.
Versatility:
- A single machine can perform a vast library of different tests simply by changing the grips and selecting the correct software method.
Powerful Data Analysis:
- The software automatically identifies key points on the stress-strain curve and generates detailed reports, eliminating manual calculation errors.
Safety:
- Built-in software and hardware limits protect both the machine and the operator from overloads and other hazardous conditions.
User-Friendly:
Complex tests can be pre-programmed, allowing less experienced operators to run them reliably.
