Shimadzu’s UH-X and UH-FX series hydraulic universal test frames are easy-to-use, economical solutions for high-capacity testing. With an integrated LCD touch panel and controller unit, the UH-X and UH-FX are completely self-contained, reducing footprint and eliminating exposed hydraulic lines. UH-X test frames include enclosed manual grips, whereas UH-FX test frames have actuated open-front hydraulic grips.
A 10.4-inch color touch screen, conveniently positioned on the controller unit with an easy-to-operate graphical user interface, plots Stress vs Strain curves in real time, and enables tensile, compression, or cycle testing without a computer. With the use of a USB memory stick, measurement data are automatically saved, enabling further analysis with Trapezium X Testing Software.
While connected with Trapezium X, data can be acquired every 1 msec (1,000 Hz), capturing sudden changes in data.
Real-time auto-tuning of control parameters eliminates the need for preliminary testing and enables quick and easy stress- or strain-controlled testing compliant with ISO 6892.
A large emergency-stop button, security key switch, and a safety stopper preventing grip face contact keep the operator safe. An optional safety shield provides a greater level of safety by protecting the operator and preventing access to the test space during testing.
The optional dial indicator provides another choice for monitoring test progress and includes a large analog test force indicator superimposed with digital test force and peak force indicators.
Common to all Shimadzu universal test frames, Trapezium X universal testing software redefines the user-friendly graphical interface, seamlessly integrating method development, testing, data analysis, and reporting. Visit the Trapezium X page for more information.
