Used, overhauled universal testing machines for

Tensile, compression, bending tests

starting from approximate
        25 kN (spindle drive machines)
200 kN (hydraulic machines)
    it pays to think also about an used equipment!

 Inquiry form for tensile / universal testing machines-

When testing machine has passed an overhauling in our expert works shop (mostly with a modernisation) this meets the requirements for high accuracy and rational testing and within the accuracy of the standards (ISO6892 and other -class 1 or 0.5)

This machines are a real alternative to a new machine – especially because the lay out of this old machines are every time more solid than new machines.

At least the commercial point and your requirements have to be checked first: Please send us your needs (standards or component testing) and the required force / your requirements for test performance. We will show you our recommendation to have an alternative to a new machine…

A used machine not every time is the best solution (from commercial and technical few). In many cases the price of a new machine is close by. And this new machine does have other benefits: A used hydraulic machine is not suitable for automatic extensometer. This machines are mostly designed with plunger piston. If the specimen does not have a high elongation and the forces for this tests are higher than 100 kN the piston will “jump” several mm (up to 20 mm).

The arms of an automatic extensometer will be pulled together with the specimen in high speed. This will damage the arms of the extensometer and destroying the arms / knifes…

Additional the machine has to be “redesigned” to implement hydraulic grips.
But this grips are necessary to hold the specimen after rupture… (not to damage the extensometer…)

At every spindle drive machine this point are not a problem: All spindle machines (also used machine) can be equipped with equipments like:
- hydraulic grips
- changing system for clamping systems
- t-slot plates
- extensometers (manual or full automatic)
