TensileTurn CNC – Classic Upgrade – Round Tensile Specimen Preparation Machine

15 March 2018

The TensileTurn CNC – Classic Upgrade is engineered specifically for preparing round tensile specimens with controlled gauge dimensions and stable repeatability. The system allows operators to select standardized geometry from ASTM, ISO, or DIN libraries or input custom parameters when required. Materials up to 55 HRC can be processed, including common engineering metals and specialty alloys used in research and production. Its compact footprint and guided interface support both experienced machinists and users without CNC backgrounds.

TensileMill CNC XL – Flat Tensile Specimen Preparation Machine

7 February 2017

The TensileMill CNC XL – Flat Tensile Specimen Preparation Machine is an advanced CNC system built for accurate and repeatable flat specimen machining. Designed for high-volume testing environments, it supports ASTM E8, ASTM A370, ISO 6892-1, and DIN 50125 standards. Its powerful 5 hp spindle, Mach4-based Carbon™ control, and automatic tool changer deliver fast material processing across metals, polymers, and composites. The heavy cast iron frame ensures vibration-free precision, while the intuitive TensileSoft™ interface allows both trained and new operators to achieve consistent results.

TensileMill CNC MINI – Compact Flat Tensile Specimen Preparation System

2 November 2016

The TensileMill CNC MINI is a compact CNC system designed for preparing standardized flat tensile test specimens. It supports specimen geometries based on ASTM E8, ASTM A370 / E370, ISO 6892-1, DIN 50125, and JIS Z2201. The system uses a cast iron frame, linear guideways, and a guided TensileSoft™ interface to support consistent specimen dimensions. Operators can select preloaded standard profiles or enter custom dimensions directly into the control interface. The MINI is suitable for routine testing workflows, training environments, and production quality control applications.

NG-SHM Series A — Servo-Hydraulic Universal Testing Machines (300 kN – 3000 kN)

1 November 2016

NG-SHM Series A is a high-force servo-hydraulic UTM for static tensile and compression testing of metals. Capacity options from 300 to 3000 kN support oversized round and flat specimens beyond electromechanical limits. The dual-zone configuration enables tension on the upper head and compression on the lower platen without fixture changeover. GenTest software offers standards-based method libraries, real-time curves, automatic calculations, and exportable reports. The system is built for ASTM/ISO metal strength testing in heavy industrial and research environments.
