Universal Testing Machine (UTM)
Universal testing machine (UTM) is used to test the tensile strength, compressive strength and other mechanical properties of materials.
- Description
| Testing Method | Universal Testing Machine (UTM) |
| Description | Universal testing machine (UTM), also known as a universal tester or materials testing machine, is used to test the tensile strength and compressive strength of materials. Universal Testing Machines can accommodate many kinds of materials, ranging from hard samples, such as metals and concrete, to flexible samples, such as rubber and textiles.
The UTM is a versatile and valuable piece of testing equipment that can evaluate materials properties such as tensile strength, elasticity, compression, yield strength, elastic and plastic deformation, bend compression, and strain hardening. Different models of Universal Testing Machines have different load capacities, some as low as 5kN and others as high as 2,000kN. |
