Compressive Strength Testing Machine

A compression testing machine (CTM) is a device that measures a material's compressive strength by applying a force until it breaks.

Flexural Strength Testing Machine

Flexural testing machine is used to measure the force required to bend a beam of plastic material and determines the resistance to flexing or stiffness of a material.

Deep Abrasion Testing Machine

A deep abrasion testing machine is a device that evaluates how well a material resists deep abrasion. It's used to test the resistance of unglazed tiles and other materials to abrasion.

Particle Size Analyser

A particle size analyzer is a tool that measures the size, shape, and distribution of particles in a sample. It can be used to analyze samples in liquid, powder, aerosol, or other forms.

XRF Analyser Machine

An X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer is a nondestructive instrument that measures the elemental composition of a material by exposing it to X-rays and analyzing the resulting fluorescent X-rays.

Water Absorption Test Machine

A Water Absorption test machine is used to test how much water any material can absorb.

Muffle Furnace

A muffle furnace is a laboratory instrument used to heat materials to extremely high temperatures whilst isolating them from fuel and the byproducts of combustion from the heat source. Muffle furnaces allow for the isolation of a material to reduce the risks of cross-contamination and identify specific properties.

Coefficient of Linear Expansion Testing Machine

CLTE tester is a machine that measures how much a material expands when heated or cooled. The coefficient of linear expansion is a measure of how much a material's length changes in relation to its total length when the temperature changes by one Kelvin.

Density Testing Machine

A density testing machine, also known as a density meter or densimeter, is a device used to measure the density of solids, liquids, and powders.
