Electromechanical Universal Testing Machines
Electromechanical universal testing machines deliver precise, stable loading through a high-performance motor-driven crosshead. Unlike hydraulic systems, they offer clean, quiet, and maintenance-free operation, eliminating the risk of oil leaks, reducing downtime, and ensuring a consistently controlled testing environment.
Higher Frame Stiffness
The entire load frame including the crosshead and columns is engineered for maximum stiffness. Every critical component (ball screws, nuts, bearings, sensors, etc.) is precision-matched to virtually eliminate mechanical backlash, ensuring highly stable test results.
Single-column models incorporate a high-precision linear guide rail for smooth, controlled crosshead movement, while benchtop and floor-standing models use dual guide rods passing through the crosshead to dramatically increase frame rigidity.
Faster Testing Performance
The new ETM series features a servo direct-drive architecture that replaces conventional gearbox transmission with a high-rigidity synchronous belt system. This next-generation drive design delivers significantly higher transmission efficiency, ensuring faster performance.
Enhanced Safety
An advanced collision-mitigation system continuously monitors sudden force fluctuations and automatically stops the machine to protect both the load cell and the material.
For applications requiring higher safety levels, an optional fully enclosed transparent guard with interlock functionality ensures full-coverage operator protection and compliant test operation.
Software overload limits safeguard the load cell by preventing excessive force conditions.
The mechanical limit switches add an additional layer of protection to the system.
More Intuitive Operation
An intelligent four-color status indicator (compliant with IEC 60073) provides clear visual feedback on machine status. This intuitive signaling system helps operators avoid improper actions and enhances overall operational safety and efficiency.
Simplified Test Workflow
An optional integrated touchscreen computer, combined with an intuitive software interface, streamlines test setup and execution.
Easier Maintenance
A modular controller design enables fast, plug-and-play replacement of key components, minimizing downtime. The easily removable base cover provides direct access to internal mechanisms, greatly simplifying routine inspection and maintenance.
