Tensile testing on metals: versatility, precision and regulatory compliance

Galdabini universal testing machines are designed to perform tensile tests on metals in full compliance with the main international standards, including:

• ISO 6892-1 – Metallic materials – Tensile testing – Method of test at room temperature;
• ISO 6892-2 – Metallic materials – Tensile testing – Method of test at elevated temperature;
• ASTM E8 / ASTM E8M – Standard Test Methods for Tension Testing of Metallic Materials;
• ASTM A370 – Standard Test Methods and Definitions for Mechanical Testing of Steel Products.

Compliance with these standards guarantees certifiable, repeatable results that are internationally recognized across major industrial sectors.

The machines can be configured to test both flat and round specimens, offering maximum operational flexibility and allowing companies to use a single platform for different types of samples.

The available range covers loads from 5 kN up to 1200 kN, enabling very different applications: from testing small specimens to tests on high-strength materials, as well as quality controls in production and research and development activities.

The tests make it possible to determine fundamental mechanical characteristics of the material, including:

• breaking load;
• yield strength;
• elongation;
• elastic modulus;
• material behavior under stress.

For special applications, Galdabini can also supply machines equipped for temperature testing, always in compliance with the relevant ISO and ASTM standards. The integration of furnaces or climatic chambers allows analysis of material behavior under real operating conditions, both at high and low temperatures, a solution particularly requested in the automotive, aerospace, energy and metallurgy sectors.
