Overview UNITEST-H series (Dual space) Servo-hydraulic Universal Testing

Machine is ideal for high-capacity tension, compression, bend/flex, and

shear testing. It is designed completely in the purpose of meeting

correspondent requirements of BS, EN, ISO, ASTM, JIS, GB and many

other testing methods. These frames feature dual spaces so users can

quickly change between tension and compression testing without having to

remove heavy fixtures. 

Verify the Mechanical Properties of

metals-(wire, rod, tube, strip, plate, strip), fasteners (tensile, proof, single and double shear), construction materials (rebar, wire strand, mesh, folding,

compression of concrete) and components)  and more 

Extra-length screws and columns, with an adjustable lower crosshead, to increase the available test space for

longer test specimens.

Semi-open front hydraulic wedge clamps for easier loading and allowing rapid loading and unloading of specimens.

Rigid 4-column load frame construction providing superior axial and lateral stiffness and minimum maintenance, low

reaction at specimen failure.

With digital displacement transducer for the best positioning and measuring accuracy

Hydraulic operated wedge grips available

Including grip control system mounted direct at the machine

Tooling for tension, compression, bend/flex, shear, and other tests.

Chrome plated columns for easy cleaning and longest life.

Wide selection applications:

Frames are available in capacities from 50kN (11,250 lbf) to 2000kN (450,000 lbf), those frames are designed for performing tests on

metals, sheet materials, bar stock, composites, fasteners, rebar, strapping, strands and other materials.

Large test space

Double acting crossbeam quickly accommodates specimens of varying lengths. In the case of additional length of columns, the maximum testing space is adjustable to meet extra length specimens.

Optional extra height load frames are available to accommodate pretested concrete strand

Rugged load frame.

Four-column construction provides exceptional load frame rigidity.

Fully open front wedge grips

Fully open front wedge grips make it easy to insert and remove specimens for increased productivity and operator safety. Interchangeable design allows limited number of jaw faces to accommodate a large range of specimen sizes 

Outstanding features

Rigid 4‐column load frame construction providing superior axial and lateral stiffness and minimum 

maintenance, low reaction at specimen failure. 

With digital displacement transducer for the best positioning and measuring accuracy 

Hydraulic operated wedge grips available, grip control system directly mounted on the machine 

Tooling for tension, compression, bend/flex, shear, and other tests. 

With chrome plated columns for easy cleaning and longest life.
