JINAN, China – In every industry that relies on materials—whether steel for skyscrapers, rubber for automotive seals, or composites for aerospace components—there is a fundamental question that must be answered: Will this material perform as intended? The answer comes from a Universal Testing Machine (UTM) , the most essential instrument in any materials testing laboratory.

At Jinan Xinguang Test Machine Manufacturing Co., Ltd. , we have dedicated over two decades to perfecting the art and science of universal testing. As a national high-tech enterprise, we combine advanced manufacturing capabilities with deep technical expertise to deliver testing solutions that empower industries worldwide to ensure quality, safety, and performance .

What is a Universal Testing Machine?

A universal testing machine is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the mechanical properties of materials by applying controlled forces and measuring their responses. The term "universal" reflects the machine's remarkable versatility—it can perform multiple types of tests, including tension, compression, bending, shearing, and peeling, all on a single platform.

Modern UTMs consist of several key components:

- A rigid load frame that provides structural stability during testing

- A precision drive system (either electromechanical or hydraulic) that applies controlled forces

- High-accuracy sensors that measure force and displacement

- Advanced control software that manages test procedures and analyzes results

Jinan Xinguang's Comprehensive UTM Product Portfolio

Jinan Xinguang offers a complete range of universal testing machines to meet diverse application requirements. Our product lines are designed with precision, durability, and user experience at the forefront.

These machines feature advanced chip integration technology and professionally designed data acquisition systems, ensuring that test force and deformation signals are fully digitized for exceptional clarity and stability .

Key applications include testing metals, non-metals, plastics, rubber, textiles, films, wires, and composite materials. These machines comply with GB, JIS, ASTM, DIN, ISO, and other international standards, automatically calculating critical parameters such as maximum test force, yield strength, tensile strength, elongation at break, and elastic modulus .

2. Hydraulic Universal Testing Machines

For high-capacity testing applications, Jinan Xinguang offers advanced hydraulic universal testing machines. Our WAW series microcomputer-controlled electro-hydraulic servo universal testing machines adopt technology inspired by Japanese engineering, featuring a cylinder-down design with worm gear transmission .

These machines excel at tensile, compression, and bending tests for metallic and non-metallic materials. The hydraulic cylinders are manufactured using traditional precision grinding techniques, resulting in minimal clearance, superior sealing, excellent stability, and exceptional durability . Our high-capacity models reach up to 6500kN (650 tons), suitable for testing large-scale steel structures and concrete components .

3. Electro-Hydraulic Dynamic and Static Universal Testing Machines

For advanced materials research, our electro-hydraulic dynamic and static universal testing machines provide symmetrical cyclic fatigue testing capabilities alongside static tensile testing functions . These systems feature:
