OmniTest (utm) tensile rig twin column tuned tablet 50kn

A versatile and easy to use higher-capacity universal testing machine powered by our newly developed materials testing software, VectorPro MT.

To suit your materials testing requirements the OmniTest range of universal testing machines is available as single-column (5 kN or 7.5 kN) and dual-column (10 kN, 25 kN and 50 kN) models.

As materials testers, they have been designed for versatility and ease-of-use thus appealing to users of varying skills and experience. They all fit comfortably on your bench-top, making them ideal for use in QC and R&D laboratories.

All OmniTest models are controlled by VectorPro-MT software running on a PC. They deliver both consistency and reliability by controlling the key test parameters of stress/strain, force/displacement and speed/load rate.

Whether you need to know the Young's Modulus, Offset Yield, Ultimate Tensile Strength or a whole host of other materials characteristics, the OmniTest universal testing machine has it covered for you. 

The twin-column OmniTest testing system comprises five key elements:

Speed

Range

10 kN = 0.01-1000 mm/min (0.0004 -39.4"/min)
25 kN = 0.01-1000 mm/min (0.0004 -39.4"/min) ~ 0 to 10kN
          = 0.01- 500 mm/min (0.0004 -19.7"/min) ~ 10 to 25kN
50 kN = 0.01- 400 mm/min (0.0004 - 15.7"/min) ~ 0 to 25kN
          = 0.01- 250 mm/min (0.0004 - 9.8"/min) ~ 25 to 50kN

Accuracy

At steady state: <50 mm/min = ±0.5% of indicated speed or ±0.05 mm/min (whichever is greater)

50 - 500 mm/min = ±0.2% of indicated speed

>500 mm/min = ±1% of indicated speed
