Universal Textile Strength Tester
The Universal Textile Strength Tester (UTE Series) is a versatile testing instrument designed for evaluating the mechanical properties of textiles, yarns, ropes, and similar materials. It measures tensile strength, elongation at break, seam strength, stitch slippage, tear strength, and peel strength. The system supports modular software-based testing, allowing users to select testing modules according to actual requirements. Both standard and custom test programs are available, providing flexibility and efficiency for research, quality control, and production verification.
Applications
(1) Textile testing: fabric, yarn, nonwoven, and composite materials.
(2) Plastic and polymer material testing for tensile, compression, bending, and peel performance.
(3) Biomedical materials evaluation, including elastic and composite materials.
(4) Automotive and aerospace components for mechanical strength and durability tests.
(5) R&D and quality control laboratories for new product development and verification.
