Industrial Testing Equipment
Federal India Trading Company for QA results you can defend
UK, USA & German principal products
Since 1950, we have helped QA, R&D, packaging, polymer, pharma, aerospace, and purchase teams avoid underspecified, overspecified, or mismatched testing systems by matching each recommendation to the sample, standard, range, and compliance requirement.
Not ready for a formal quote? Share the test first. When needed, we get your material reviewed or tested with the manufacturer so the grips, fixtures, capacity, and setup are confirmed before we quote.
Used by QA, R&D, Research, and Production Teams
Installed across polymer, packaging, aerospace, pharma, textile, and research labs where standards, fixtures, repeatability, and compliance matter.
Where the Right Setup Matters
Examples where machine capacity, grips, fixtures, software, and measurement range matter to the result.
UTM systems for regulated medical testing
Testometric UTM systems with 21 CFR Part 11 compliant software, 1000 Hz data acquisition, repeatability, robust precision, and extension readability down to 0.000001 mm for demanding validation workflows.
Precision UTM performance for aerospace and motorsport validation
Formula 1 car halo structures are tested at an FIA-approved facility in the UK using Testometric UTM systems. ISRO also uses Testometric UTMs in Ahmedabad and at the Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre, Kerala, where repeatability, resolution, and precision matter.
Heavy-duty geotextile and technical textile testing
300 kN heavy-duty UTM with dual-cylinder hydraulic grips and video extensometer support for fast testing, grip stability, and no-slippage workflows. The same equipment platform is used by a Poland testing and certification lab for its build quality.
Advanced OTR/WVTR for films, pouches, and packets
Advanced OTR and WVTR analyzers support wide-range barrier testing, package fixtures, no daily calibration requirement, and low-level measurement down to 0.05 cc/(m²·day) for OTR and 0.002 g/(m²·day) for WVTR.

Buyer Questions
The details that help FITCO recommend the right model faster.
How do I know which model or capacity is right for my application?
FITCO shortlists equipment after understanding your sample material, test method, standard, expected range, throughput, accessories, software needs, and compliance requirements. This helps avoid buying a machine that is underspecified, overspecified, or missing the right fixtures.
What should I share for a faster quotation?
Share your sample type, test standard, measurement range, number of samples per day, required accessories, software or data integrity needs, delivery location, and whether installation or training is required.
Can FITCO support standards and compliance requirements?
Yes. FITCO supplies systems used for ASTM, ISO, EN, DIN, BS and regulated packaging or laboratory workflows, including solutions where 21 CFR Part 11 data integrity is required.
How does FITCO's Testometric UTM compare to Instron or Zwick Roell?
FITCO supplies Testometric UK universal testing machines for tensile, compression, flexure, peel, textile, medical, polymer, aerospace, and research workflows. Systems can support ASTM and ISO methods, 1000 Hz data acquisition, extensometers, fixtures, and 21 CFR Part 11 software options depending on the selected configuration.
Can I replace a Mocon OTR or WVTR analyzer with Industrial Physics instruments?
Industrial Physics and Systech Illinois OTR and WVTR analyzers are used for barrier packaging, films, pouches, food, pharmaceutical, and flexible packaging tests. FITCO helps compare the target standard, range, sample format, fixtures, calibration workflow, and data requirements before recommending a replacement.
Do you offer alternatives to Shimadzu or Goettfert rheometers?
FITCO supplies Dynisco and related polymer testing lines for melt flow, capillary rheology, IV, viscosity, and process-control workflows. The right alternative depends on the polymer, test method, throughput, temperature range, data integrity requirement, and service expectations.
Do you provide equipment similar to Brabender?
FITCO's portfolio covers several polymer processing and characterization workflows, including melt flow, rheology, sample preparation, presses, and material testing. FITCO reviews the exact Brabender application before suggesting the closest suitable equipment family.
How should I compare low-cost alternatives like GBPI, Labthink, or ExtraSolution?
FITCO recommends comparing low-cost systems on repeatability, usable sensitivity, calibration workflow, fixture quality, software integrity, service support, and long-term downtime risk rather than purchase price alone. This is especially important for regulated packaging, food, pharmaceutical, and export QC workflows.
Avoid the Wrong Tester
Share your sample, standard, range, and target result. If the setup is uncertain, we will help verify it with the manufacturer before quoting the machine.
