Electromechanical Universal Testing Machine 300 kN Capacity Both for Compression and Tension
Unimec 300 is suitable for a wide range of tests on different kinds of construction materials such as concrete, mortar, steel, soil, asphalt, bitumen and also plastic, rubber, wood and others.
It can work in two directions, allowing to perform tests both in tension and in compression, and it is equipped with a high precision load cell to grant accurate results and an integrated device to measure the crosshead displacement.
The movement system includes two linear actuators (of the ball-screw type) which provide two main effects: reduction of the friction at minimum, granting a smooth and precise positioning of the crosshead; elimination of manual operations to determine the position of the crosshead, the movement is completely automatized and controlled with an easy-access keyboard.
Thanks to its versatility, Unimec 300 is the best choice for advanced research and evaluation of mechanical properties of different materials in accordance with the latest relevant standards or following procedures not yet described by any standard.
The crosshead is provided with a quick coupling in order to make the accessories installation easy and fast.
The display position can be regulated according to the user’s needs.
The external carter protecting the guide columns and the screws is made of painted steel sheets, the internal sides are closed with anti-dust accordions and all the outside and internal parts are properly treated against corrosion.
A cover carter is included to collect debris an dust and easily throw them away without getting the machine countertop dirt.
