Tensile Testing Machines

Basic, advanced, touchscreen and computerised tensile testers

Tensile Testing Machines · Canan Testing

Our product range includes a wide range of tensile testing machines: industrial, electronic, computer controlled and digital tensile testers. The UNITEK electromechanical series (UNITEK-9700, UNITEK-9400 and UNITEK-1600 TS) uses a precision AC servo drive with ball lead screw, interchangeable load cells with automatic load selection and variable speeds to measure tensile strength, elongation and modulus accurately.

For high-force tensile tests on steel bars and plates, see our hydraulic universal testing machines. For plastics, rubber, wires, foils, textiles and small components, a UNITEK tensile tester is the right fit.

About Tensile Testing Machines

A tensile testing machine pulls a specimen until it breaks and measures the force and extension throughout the test. From this it calculates ultimate tensile strength, yield or proof stress, elongation and, with an extensometer, the modulus of elasticity. These values are specified in almost every material standard and customer drawing.

For polymers, rubber, wires, foils, films and small components, an electromechanical tensile tester with interchangeable load cells gives the best resolution. For high-strength steel bars and plates, a hydraulic universal testing machine is used instead.

Tensile Testing Machines: Buying Guide

What does a tensile test measure?

  • Ultimate tensile strength (UTS)
  • Yield strength / 0.2% proof stress
  • Elongation at break and reduction of area
  • Modulus of elasticity (with an extensometer)
  • Load-displacement and stress-strain curves

Choosing a tensile testing machine

  • Match the load cell to your expected breaking force for the best accuracy
  • Choose grips designed for your specimen: wedge, pneumatic, wire, film or rope grips
  • Touchscreen and computerised models plot curves and store results
  • Add an extensometer for proof stress and modulus

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tensile testing machine?

It is a machine that pulls a specimen apart under a controlled load to measure its tensile strength, yield strength and elongation.

What is the difference between a tensile tester and a UTM?

A UTM can perform tension, compression, bend and shear tests. Many electromechanical machines sold as tensile testers are also UTMs with the right fixtures.

Can one machine test plastics and metals?

Yes, within its capacity. UNITEK machines with interchangeable load cells can test polymers and thin metals; high-strength steel needs a hydraulic UTM.

Do you calibrate tensile testing machines?

Yes, as per ISO 7500-1 and IS 1828 in our NABL accredited scope.
