Assessment of the mechanical performance of materials, determined on a universal testing machine, in different configurations. Tests can be carried out to evaluate the resistance to flexion, compression or traction of materials of different natures, in accordance with the standards applied for each situation. The equipment monitors the deformations suffered by the samples depending on the applied stresses, allowing the determination of the elastic modulus, yield limit and rupture stress, among other parameters. The analyses are extremely useful for indicating the performance of materials against mechanical stress and used in engineering calculations for material specification. In the case of ceramic products, in addition to performance during use, they can be used to evaluate the performance of parts before sintering, indicating the ease of transport and handling of green parts.
