Universal Testing Machine

HEICO UTM is suitable to conduct following tests – (i) Compression (ii) Tension (iii) Transverse (iv)Bending (v) Shear (vi) Hardness and many others on various types of ferrous and non-ferrous materials conforming to testing procedure laid down in IS/ ASTM etc. standards.

HEICO range of UTM’s are available in two models-
• HL 590 Series- Electronic Universal Testing Machine
• HLC 591 Series- Fully Automatic Servo Controlled Universal Testing Machine

Electronic Universal Testing Machine

HL 590

Electronic range of UTM’s are fast, accurate & simple to operate. In these machines load and displacement are displayed on the digital display unit or monitor in the respective engineering units. Digital display unit has RS 232/ USB connectivity to computer for real time transfer data to computer. When connected to computer online graph can be displayed on the screen. These machines are supported by windows based user friendly software which can store, retrieve readings as and when required.

Salient Features

  • Comply with various International and National standards .
  • Six pillar type Loading frame to have better stability.
  • Easy cross head movement on the two pillars to adjust the gap with easy operation for specimen as per requirement.
  • Easily changeable Grips for Tension test.
  • Start & Stop operation for transferring data from control unit to computer
  • Load Measuring Accuracy less than +1% of the measured value of Load in the Range from 2% -100% capacity
  • Displacement Measuring Accuracy less than +1% of the measured value of displacement
  • Online plotting of Load v/s Time, Displacement v/s time, Load v/s Extensometer and Load v/s Displacement graphs along with data display
  • Statistical analysis of the test results along with facility to export data to Excel
  • Safety features like over travel limit for central cross head, over travel limit for ram and over loading of the system should be provided as standard in the machine.

The machine comprise of three main parts.
(A)   LOADING FRAME
(B)   HYDRAULIC PUMPING SYSTEM
(C)   ELECTRONIC CONTROL PANEL

Fully Automatic Servo Controlled Universal Testing Machine

HLC 591

The machine is based on Servo Hydraulic Closed Loop principle and fully computer controlled, operated through Windows based software with ease of operation. It is capable of carrying out all mechanical tests such as Tensile Strength, Proof Stress, Compression Test, Shear Test, Flexure test, Hardness test etc.

HLC-591 machines are similar in construction to HL-590 machines except for automatic pace setting based on servo hydraulic closed loop principle. In these series of machines the pace setting is achieved through a combination of advanced electronic and hydraulic system. Pacing speed is programmed through the software in selectable control modes and controlled by servo/proportional valve through PID controller.
