The 2 column material testing machines are designed to test a wide range of materials such as Plastics, Light Metals, Rubber, Adhesives, Leather, Textiles, Threads, Ropes, Non-woven … in Tension – Compression – Bending – Shear – tear …, up to 10 – 50 kN
The Testing Machines are controlled in a closed loop by a high-performance Touch Screen PC, which allows to operate Automatically when carrying out the tests, by means of the modular Materials Testing Software “METROTEST”.
We have a wide range of test accessories (Clamps, Extensometers, Thermal Test Chambers, Bending Bridges, Special Devices).
CTE-1 Thermal Test Chambers prepared to be coupled to the Universal Test Machines
