Tensile strength is the stress at which a material breaks or permanently deforms. PRESTO Digital Tensile Tester is a state of the art, highly versatile equipment for checking the breaking strength of packaging related raw materials and finished products.
Tensile tests are commonly used to measure the mechanical properties of plastics. The force required to break a plastic sample specimen is an indication of the material's strength, while the extent to which the specimen stretches or elongates to that breaking point provides information about its ductility.
The Presto Tensile Testing Machine is based on the Constant Rate of Traverse (CRT) principle. During the test, the sample is held between two jaws. The upper jaw is stationary, while the lower jaw is made to move at a designated fixed speed with the help of a motor.
Presto comes with a new model of tensile testing machine with a COF tester. This testing machine is well designed with industry standards like ASTM D618, ASTM D 883, BS 2782, and ASTM D 1894. With the help of this testing machine, you can easily measure the tensile strength along with the co-efficient of friction of various products like plastic films, sheets, and rubber and paper.
The universal tensile machine is manufactured precisely to determine the ductility of various materials like rubbers, textiles, metals & plastics by exerting tensile strength in a structured manner. This allows the operator to assess & evaluate a material’s elongation levels and tensile tolerance that is necessary for the durability & ductility of materials.
The Universal Tensile Machine (UTM machine) is an advanced material testing system designed to evaluate the mechanical properties of various substances, such as (rubber, plastics, metals, and textiles). By applying controlled tensile force, this tensile testing system measures a material’s elongation, tensile tolerance, and ductility, ensuring durability, reliability, and compliance with ASTM and ISO standards.
The UTM test machine functions by securing a test sample between two grips—one fixed and the other movable. The machine applies a gradual tensile load, and as force increases, it records key parameters such as:
This material stress analysis helps manufacturers determine how much force a material can endure before failure.
The UTM machine is widely used in quality control, R&D, and industrial manufacturing to assess the strength, flexibility, and performance of materials. Key industries benefiting from this load testing machine include:
A universal tensile testing machine helps manufacturers identify material limitations , prevent failures, enhance product reliability. Compliance with global testing standards like ASTM and ISO ensures that products meet safety and durability requirements.
By integrating a UTM test machine into quality control processes, company can ensure their materials perform optimally under real-world conditions.
