A Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is a type of mechanical testing equipment used to test the strength and durability of various materials such as metals, plastics, ceramics, pavement materials, and composites. It is a versatile machine that can perform a variety of tests including tension, compression, bending, shear, and hardness tests.
The UTM applies controlled forces and measures the resulting deformation or displacement of the material being tested. It is widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, construction, pavement, and manufacturing to ensure the quality and safety of their products.
