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

Operating range

Load: 500N and 10kN 
Speed: 0.005 to 500 mm/min 
Temperature: 22 to 120°C

Application 

Tensile, Compressive, Flexural (3-/4-point bending) & Shear Stress-Strain Data 
Young's Modulus, Shear Modulus 
Elevated & Cryogenic Temperatures 
Friction Coefficients
Fracture Mechanics & Cyclic Tests

Warning: The video extensometer for non-contact elongation measurements is currently broken, including measurements of Poisson's ratio
