Universal testing machines (UTMs) stretch, bend and compress test samples at controlled test speeds or constant loading rates.
Our UTMs are used to evaluate static product and material strength properties including uniaxial tensile, compression, cyclic, shear, flexure, bend, peel, tear and material characteristics such as elongation and modulus.
Our test machines are modular, which means they are easily modified for different tests. For each load frame, we offer two tiers of test controllers (basic and premium) which work with all load cell and strain sensors.
TestResources universal test machine uses a design and technology platform that can grow with your testing needs for many years to come.
