INSTRON 5566 UTM Testing Services

How Our Lab Uses the INSTRON 5566 UTM

The Instron 5566 Universal Testing Machine allows a wide range of mechanical properties testing. Simple changes of setup allow for measurement of tensile, flexural and compressive properties, as well as coefficient of friction, creep-relaxation and other properties of interest.

Common Applications

  • video extensometry for non-contact elongation measurements

  • tensile, compressive, flexural stress-strain data

  • Poisson's ratio

  • Young's modulus, shear modulus

  • elevated & cryogenic temperatures

  • tensile, compressive, shear strength

  • friction coefficients

  • fracture mechanics

Get Started

  1. Share your requirements

    Tell us about the material, application, environment, and any method, standard, specimen, or conditioning constraints.

  2. Confirm the approach

    We’ll align the appropriate method, specimen requirements, and deliverables to your objectives, then provide a quote and test plan.

  3. Submit your PO and materials

    Send the purchase order and arrange delivery of materials or specimens so the program can move into scheduling and execution.

  4. Receive your results

    You’ll receive an engineering test report with digital data delivery, along with any agreed raw data or method-appropriate outputs.

    Typical turnaround for most testing is five business days. Longer-duration programs may require more time.
