UH Series
Universal Testing Machine

As global environmental problems become more and more serious, materials are required to provide light weight, high strength and reliability. The UH Series Shimadzu Universal Testing Machines are new universal testing machines that provide various functions enabling more accurate and simplified measurement of the strength required for various materials. The UH Series enable high-precision force measurement conforming to the global standards. The UH series provide automatic control programs as standard functions. After a specimen is mounted, all operations can be automatically performed. The UH series are high-quality products manufactured in the factory that acquired the ISO9001 certification.

UH-I Series

• The large-sized LCD touch panel greatly simplifies operations and enhances visibility.
  The UH-I series provide the graphical interface that enables various functions to be operated on the one-touch panel.
  During a test, an S-S curve is plotted in real time.
• The UH-I series newly provide various automatic control programs as standard functions.
  The metal tensile test control program is provided as a standard function (conforming to JIS Z2241)
  The single test control, cycle test control, high-temperature tensile test control, stroke speed 3-step switching control programs are provided as standard functions.
  Through the fully-closed loop automatic load control, the UH-I series enable stable and accurate tests.
• Force auto-zero and auto-calibration functions.
  The UH-I series greatly simplify operations by omitting troublesome adjuster knob operations.
• The non-revolving screwing rod improves safety.
  A specimen can be safely mounted and dismounted.
• With various application testing equipment, the UH-I series are applicable to various tests.
  Various test jigs, displacement measuring equipment, atmosphere testing equipment, test control programs, etc. (See the catalog for optional accessories).
• With connection to the optional data processing program, the UH-I series enable high-speed test data sampling.
  The UH-I series perform data sampling at a high speed (5 ms max) to obtain a true value.
  The UH-I series can be connected to a personal computer through the personal computer's standard RS-232C serial interface. Also, they can be connected to a note book computer, saving the required space. (The GP-IB or another special interface is not necessary).

UH-FI Series

• Easy-to-operate front-opening hydraulic grips
  The front-opening hydraulic grips using the center hole hydraulic cylinder improves the efficiency in removing a specimen and scale, and ensures safe operation. Also, these grips enable even long specimens to be easily mounted.
  These grips can be enhanced th the highly-functional, labor-saving model that has the automatic grip face changing functions.
• The compression plate can be easily mounted and dismounted.
  A wrench or other tool is not necessary.
• A specimen grip position index is provided
  With the specimen grip position index, the grips can easily and accurately grip a specimen.
• The grip face holder is equipped with a safety stopper
  The safety stopper precents the right and left grip faces from coming into contact due to erroneous operation, so that the grip faces will not be damaged.
• The UH-FI series can be enhanced to a fully-automated tensile test system
  All operations including specimen dimension measurement, specimen feeding operation, test data processing and chart display can be automated.
