SYNTAX 5 Compact Universal Testing Machine – 5 kN

Benefits

• Significantly smaller footprint compared to other UTMs.
• Suitable for teaching and routine quality control tests.
• Offers precise testing of low-force and soft materials.
• Force and position are measured with 10 million-count resolution.
• Accuracy complies with ISO 7500-1 and Class 0.5 (0.2 % FS).
• Rigid load frame has two chrome-plated guide columns and a preloaded ball-screw assembly to ensure accurate material analysis.
• Preloaded ball screw is backlash-free, meaning force is transmitted directly to the specimen without lost motion.
• New high-performance controller.
• Crosshead speeds from 1 µm to ~600 mm/min support quasi-static testing and faster cyclic sequences.
• Crosshead position resolution of 0.1 µm and position accuracy of class 0.2 (ISO 9513) support small-strain applications.
• Easy integration — single phase 230 V power, low footprint (approx. 450 x 550 x 1,300 mm) and ~120 kg mass facilitate installation in labs.
• Remote “BlackBox” control unit houses power electronics and signal conditioning.
• Vertical test space (1000 mm daylight). Option to go larger if needed.
• Tensile tester calibration service available.
• Choose from a wide range of Universal Testing Machine Accessories, including grips, environmental chambers, and extensometers.
• A full range of load cells from 1N up to the capacity of the frame are available.

Software

This tensile tester comes supplied with comprehensive and user-friendly Synt-X software, enabling operators to move quickly from setup to execution, while ensuring consistency and repeatability. With features like automatic generation of customised test reports and pre-configuration of products and specimens, it helps users focus on their tests by reducing setup time and minimise operator errors.

The Synt-X test control software is designed, developed, and maintained in-house by 3R’s engineering team, guaranteeing long-term compatibility and continuous improvement for routine production testing, advanced research, and standard-compliant mechanical tests.
