Testing Machines also carry the adjective of Universal, and this is in part because they can be used to test or measure the force, strength or stress of materials either as raw materials or processed samples, as well as assemblies or machined parts or any type of material configuration within the force measuring range of the machine. Whether in stress tests, compression, flexure, bending, detachment, insertion, etc., and following the guidelines of international or local standards, procedures and standards. Even more specific tests such as Mullen tests on cardboard or paperboard, or foam hardness or other particular hardness of certain materials, with controlled speeds and specific sequences of operation can be performed with the appropriate accessories or elements. We have had the experience of installing, running tests, designing accessories, establishing the test sequence and test parameters in applications as varied as those listed below.
- Toothbrush bristles, (Plastics or fibers)
- Cereals (Food industry)
- Metallic materials, steel, aluminum, copper, iron, alloys, etc., in different configurations
- Ducts and plastic connectors for gasoline tanks in assembly (Automotive)
- Bones of animals
- Release of fasteners or adhering parts
- Detachment of welding points in different types of assemblies
- Strings, ropes
- Shovels, hand tools, screws, nails
- Polymers, elastomers, plastics, etc.
- Ceramic materials, ceramic adhesives,
- Rod, concrete (Construction materials)
- Parts or assemblies of the aeronautical industry
- Insertion of parts and assemblies
- Forces of connection and disconnection of assemblies and wiring
