Material testing is important in big industry, where manufacturers must be able to trust the properties of the raw materials they’re using. The rest of us generally take a supplier’s wo… ...

Tensile testing is commonly used to determine the maximum load (tensile strength) that a material or a product can withstand.

A universal testing machine is traditionally used for determining the tensile and/or compressive strength of materials. However, as their name implies, these machines can be far more flexible than ...

However, you could always take on material testing yourself with the Universal Tensile Testing Machine from [Xieshi Zhang].

Sheet metal tension testing is important to measure the amount of deformation a material for sheet metal forming can undertake.
