50 kN UTM

MADE TO MEASURE

Fully digital testing system with high precision control and accuracy, includes automated computer control of test methods giving simplicity of operation.

High resolution load cells with accuracies better than +/-0.5% down to 1/1000th of the load cell capacity.

Automatic recognition of load cells and extensometers, with instant calibration check facility.

800% overload capability of load cells without damage.

High efficiency pre-loaded self cleaning ballscrews for fast, quiet testing. Fitted with sealed for life lubricated end bearings.

Crosshead guidance system providing precise alignment and smooth running.

 

Description

Precision crosshead control via digital AC servo drive and brushless servo motor giving maintenance free operation and 23-Bit positional control.

High speed data collection systems for up to 4 synchronous channels.

6 I/O channels for additional devices such as extensometers, micrometers,
calipers, balances etc.

High stiffness loading frames with solid specialised steel crossheads and rigid extruded support columns with T-slots for accessory mounting.

Overload, overtravel and impact protection.

Telescopic covers giving additional protection for ballscrews against dust
and testing debris. Small footprint design, giving economy of bench and floor space.

Extensive range of grips and fixtures for tension, compression, flexural, shear, peel and product testing etc.

A wide range of contacting and non-contacting extensometers is available
including laser and video models.

BUILT FOR PRECISION

Force Measurement
Universally Calibrated, better than Grade 0.5 EN 7500-1, DIN 51221 ASTM E-4. AFNOR A03-501. Range 0.4% to 100% minimum. Automatic identification of load cell. Resolution 1 part in 500000. Electronic load cell protection.

Extension Measurement
Full frame length to a maximum resolution of 0.000001mm (selectable). Accuracy +/- 0.01mm. Absolute, relative and auxiliary modes in mm, inch and percent.

Speed Control
Class-leading low speed performance with speeds down to 0.00001mm/min. Drive system temperature and current protection.

Electronics System
Modular electronics system offers fast data transfer to the PC (up to 1000Hz) via high-speed Ethernet connection. Extensive input options allow the connection of a wide range of extensometers and accessories via simple plug-in interface modules.

OPTIONAL TOUCHSCREEN PANEL PC

When paired with the optional IPC3 industrial-grade Panel PC with touchscreen control, the machine becomes a robust standalone system without the need for an external PC or Laptop.

Using the latest Windows 10 operating system and running a full version of Testometric’s winTest software the system allows complete control of the test machine and provides storage and access to unlimited test methods and results. The included mounting arm which attaches to the machine column T-Slots is fully adjustable for height, reach and viewing angle allowing the user to find the most ergonomic working position.

SOFTWARE

Comprehensive winTest™ Analysis universal windows software covering tensile, compression, peel, shear, tear, cyclic, creep and multi stage testing. It includes a wide range of industry standard test methods and facility to create and store an unlimited number of further test methods. There is automated storage of all test data and ease of export to other software packages such as word, excel, access and SPC systems for enhanced report generation.
