Universal Testing Machine for ASTM D790 and ISO 178 Flexural Testing

A Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is a versatile instrument capable of performing tensile, compression, bending, and shear tests. When it comes to evaluating the flexural properties of plastics, the most widely recognized international standards are ASTM D790 and ISO 178. Both standards define methods for determining the flexural strength, flexural…

Key Industrial Applications of Hydraulic Universal Testing Machines

Metals and Heavy Engineering Hydraulic Universal Testing Machines (UTMs) are the go-to solution for testing high-strength materials due to their superior load capacity—ranging from 300 kN to over 2000 kN. They are widely used in the metallurgical, steel, mining, and construction equipment industries. Common applications include: Tensile testing of steel…
