Various materials:
By using suitable devices, Unitronic tester, within the limits of its max. 50 kN capacity for compression/flexural and 25 kN for tensile (accessory S205-05), performs compression, flexural, splitting tensile and direct tensile tests, with automatic load or displacement/deformation control.
The load is applied by a mechanical jack that is driven by a motor “brushless with closed loop through optic encoder” and controlled by a microprocessor. Stroke electric end switches are applied to the load piston to save the machine from accidental handlings.
The control panel is placed frontally and it is provided with a membrane having 6 multifunctional interactive pushbuttons driven by menu, a large graphic display and RS232 port for connection to PC.

Hardware and software specifications:
- Negative blue graphic display “320 x 240 pixel”
- 4 analogue A/D outputs for transducers or load cells.
- Permanent memory and clock calendar
- Fully automatic test processing with real time acquisition and visualization of the load/displacement or deformation, curve load/time/deformation.
- Memory of more than 100 tests, with possibility to display/delete tests from the file storage
- Multi-languages function: Italian, English, French, Spanish
