These digital universal testing machines are suitable for tensile, compression and all other special load test for non-metal material for example, plastic, rubber, thread, wood, alloy, PVC, spring , electrical wire and cable, composite, profiled bar, waterproof roll, etc.
Add the relative optional accessories and it is easy to achieve the test of bending, shearing, peeling, friction, tearing, puncture and hardness tests.
The machine is calibrated as ASTM E4, ISO 75001 international standard. By adding different grips it can perform tests to TS 12002, TS 112, TS 113, ISO 527, ISO 8295, ISO 37, ISO 178, ISO 6892, ASTM D412, ASTM C1161, ASTM D882, ASTM D885 ASTM D918, ASTM D1876, ASTM D4632 and all the force and extension JIS, DIN, BS EN testing standards.

External Digital Controller
The machine is controlled by an external digital controller (EDC). The EDC is a built-in unit without keys or a display and has been designed for static and dynamic test instruments. All the measuring channels for the basic test machine, as well as an output channel to control an actuator, are on- board. The EDC has two I2-Bus-Extension-Slots that may be used for equipment such as extensometers. The on-board load channel of the EDC has a resolution of ±180,000 steps.
EDC Features
- Load channel with a resolution of ±180,000 steps
- Incremental position channel with a controlled ±10Volt output for power amplifiers.
- Further load cells, LVDTs, strain gauges, extensometers, 2-channel-incremental-extensometers, serial controlled extensometers, safety shields, further I/Os, synchronizing several EDCs in a multi-channel application.
- Digital control; Closed Loop Control
- Connection with RS 232 and Ethernet
- Bumpless Transfer
- Interface to PC, printer
- Display of outputs (stand-alone)
- Detection of load, position, strain etc.
- Test control (stand-alone)
- Data acquisition (stand-alone)
- Test analysis (stand-alone)
- Data-logging (stand-alone)
A PC is required for operation a Handheld Unit is available as an additional option
The optional handheld unit is supplied with a 3 metre cable, directly connected to the test machine and can be placed in a convenient position on the machine as it has a magnetic foil back.
It can be used to control and monitor
- Test Speed Adjustment,
- Grips Position Control,
- Active Crosshead Control (up-down movement speed),
- Load/Deformation,
- Extension,
- Real-Time % Extension (Automatically stops when the piston reaches to maximum displacement point)
- Emergency stop
The external digital controller (EDC) allows real time load us time graph. At the end of the test cycle, the results can be stored in the large memory or downloaded to a PC in Test and Motion software format. Dedicated software package is available for further online data processing data base management and certificate printing.
Software Features
