The AZA 1009 Hydraulic Computerized UTM utilizes a hydraulic system to generate and apply the testing force. This offers several advantages for high-capacity testing:

• High Force Generation: Hydraulic systems can generate very large forces efficiently and smoothly, making them ideal for testing materials with high strength or large cross-sectional areas.
• Precise Control: Servo-hydraulic systems, commonly used in these UTMs, provide precise control over the applied force and displacement, allowing for accurate and repeatable testing.
• Smooth and Consistent Loading: Hydraulic systems deliver a smooth, consistent application of force, minimizing vibrations and ensuring accurate results.
• Durability and Reliability: Hydraulic systems are known for their robustness and long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.

The computerized control system allows for:

• Automated Testing: Pre-programmed test procedures, automatic data acquisition, and real-time display of test parameters.
• Closed-Loop Control: The machine can automatically adjust the hydraulic pressure to maintain a constant loading rate, displacement rate, or strain rate, as specified by the test standard.
• Data Acquisition and Analysis: The system captures load, displacement, and strain data, allowing for the generation of stress-strain curves and the calculation of material properties.

Key Features for High-Performance Testing:

• High-Capacity Load Frame: A robust, rigid, and heavy-duty load frame designed to withstand very high forces without deflection, ensuring accurate force application.
