Universal Testing Machine HTE Series Dual Column Floor Model - Hansa
Servo Dynamic Universal Testing Machines - Hansa HTE Series
The machine is designed for static and dynamic testing of small specimens and components, including elastomers and dampers. It is capable of performing tension, compression, and bending static tests, as well as high-cycle fatigue, low-cycle fatigue, crack growth, and fracture toughness evaluations. The system supports waveform outputs such as sine, triangular, and square waves, among others. For environmental testing, options such as an environmental chamber and a high-temperature furnace are available.
- The Robust 2-column load frame provides high rigidity, zero backlash, and excellent stability and unmatched alignment.
- The T-slot base is designed to support hydraulic grips, different components, and structural fixtures.
- The upper-mounted actuator is compact in design, oil-free, clean, low-noise, and requires no maintenance.
- The crosshead movement (lifting and lowering) is motor-driven, enabling adjustment for various testing requirements.

Universal Testing Machine
The Hansa HTE Series Dual Column Floor Model is a high-performance, servo-dynamic universal testing machine designed for rigorous material testing in industrial and research environments. This floor-standing system uses advanced servo-controlled hydraulic actuation to apply precise static and dynamic loads, allowing engineers to simulate real-world operating conditions including cyclic and fatigue loading. Compared to standard static UTMs, the HTE Series excels in evaluating materials and components under repeated and variable stresses, making it ideal for performance characterization, endurance evaluation, and durability testing in applications where materials are exposed to fluctuating forces. Dynamic machines of this kind are widely used in automotive, aerospace, civil and structural labs where reliability under service conditions is critical
While exact model specifications may vary based on customer requirements, typical HTE Series machines are available in multiple high force capacities suited for demanding applications, often including models with capacities such as 600 kN, 1000 kN and 2000 kN.
These machines operate with servo-hydraulic actuators providing precise load and position control across a range of speeds, with displacement resolution and load accuracy suitable for advanced testing. The test space between columns is large enough to accommodate a variety of specimen sizes, and the system supports variable waveform fatigue testing to replicate real-world loading conditions.
Controllers with high-speed processors and software enable real-time monitoring, automatic data logging and standard-compliant reporting.
HTE Series machines are used for tensile, compression and flexural testing as well as specialized fatigue and cyclic loading tests where materials and components are assessed under repeated stresses. These machines are particularly useful for evaluating fatigue life, endurance properties and dynamic response of structural materials like metals, alloys, composites, elastomers, fasteners, springs and load-bearing elements. HTE Series UTMs are commonly found in automotive and aerospace testing labs, civil and infrastructure research, quality control departments, and academic research institutions where dynamic material behavior under service loads must be characterized reliably.
