Before we begin, we need to discuss terminology. We're amazed at the variety of terms in the industry that are used to refer to a UTM. Most common are “tensile tester”, “compression tester” and “bend tester”. Today, a UTM can perform all of these tests and more. A UTM is a great multi-purpose instrument for an R&D lab or QC department. Thus, keeping in view the diversified scope in the engineering field, we have opted to design a Universal Testing Machine and to comply with the reduction of physical effort, the testing mechanism is automated along with the inclusion of all necessary parameters and the movement of the members. The main ideas behind opting this project of designing a UTM is to provide a helping hand to the students and personnel associated with the Mechatronics Engineering field and to provide them the better understanding of the UTM machine of international standard. Secondly, provide Pakistan this machine, manufacturing it locally at a very reasonable cost with exceptional functionality and automated mechanism.
