Overview

Delivering consistency and reliability, the OmniTest tensile and compression tester controls all key test parameters such as force, displacement and speed.

VectorPro testing software drives the test system, removing the variability of manual testing methods.

A single-column OmniTest is designed for measuring forces up to 5 kN (1100 lbf) on virtually any component, made from almost any material, either during their normal operation or when being pulled/pushed until they fail or break.

A compact bench-top design that takes up very little space, with intuitive controls makes the MultiTest-i system easy to use, even for novice operators.

Available in a range of sizes and capacities

For example, you can test high-elongation specimens on the long travel 0.5 kN and 1 kN models, ideal for tensile and adhesive peel tests on plastics and rubbers.

Our most popular 2.5 kN, 5 kN and 7.5 kN models for general purpose testing of smaller specimens, to determine tension, compression, flexure, shear and fracture characteristics.

Mecmesin deliver affordable solutions to please every budget

Customers from industries such as automotive, aerospace, cosmetics, electronics, packaging, pharmaceutical, medical, have all come to rely on Mecmesin as their partner of choice for tensile and compression testing solutions.

Features

The OmniTest universal testing system comprises four key elements:

Test frame

Ballscrew-driven motorised test frame, design for applying tensile and compressive forces from a few mN up to 5 kN. High-quality construction manufactured under ISO 9001 quality standards.

Dovetailed crosshead design for minimising operator setup time with 'plug and play' (interchangeable) loadcells automatically recognised by the software.

Pre-drilled base plate with threaded holes for configuring a wide range of grips and fixtures. Quick change (QC) adaptors make it even easier to swap grips for performing different tests.

Loadcells

Specially adapted 'plug and play' (interchangeable) loadcells, from 2 N up to 5 kN with outstanding measurement accuracy of ±0.1% or ±0.2% of the sensor capacity.

A calibration certificate (traceable to national standards) is provided as standard with every sensor.

Software

Easily create step by step test routines to your exact testing procedure requirements. Commonly used tests can be run with one-click by the operator from a 'favourites' menu or a configured drop-down list.

VectorPro test software, from a Windows computer or tablet, controls the test frame motor and collects data at 1,000 Hz from the loadcell and displacement encoder.

Plotting measurement data on a realtime graph enables the operator to see exactly how the specimen is performing. Preset calculations can analyse test data to determine if the specimen has met the quality control pass/fail criteria.

Operators can quickly issue test reports using pre-configured and customisable templates, to export data in PDF, Excel, and other formats for further analysis in a Statistical Process Control (SPC) package.

Grips and fixtures

Holding your test specimen in place without it slipping is essential to obtaining repeatable results. Mecmesin design tension and compression grips to hold any size/shape component.

We also have team of design engineers that will work with you and develop the best grip for your specimen, commonly using in-house 3D printing to produce lightweight precision fixtures.
