Shimadzu – 150th anniversary

Celebrations to mark the 150th anniversary of Shimadzu

In 2025, Shimadzu celebrates its 150th anniversary and looks back on an impressive history full of innovations and technological milestones. As a global leader in instrumental analysis and medical technology, Shimadzu has always driven progress. This anniversary is not only an occasion to celebrate, but also an opportunity to showcase the outstanding products that Shimadzu has developed in the field of materials testing.

As an official sales partner of Shimadzu, TeMeCo not only offers access to the high-quality universal testing machines, fatigue testing machines and micro hardness testers, but also comprehensive service and support.

Universal testing machines from Shimadzu: precision and versatility

Shimadzu offers a wide range of universal testing machines designed for tensile, flexure and compression tests. Models such as the AGX-V2, AGS-X, EZ-Test and UH-X are equipped with appropriate test fixtures and enable tests in accordance with international standards such as DIN EN ISO 6892 or ISO 527. The intuitive TrapeziumX-V testing software facilitates the performance of common tests and also enables the creation of freely definable test sequences.

Fatigue testing machines: testing durability under real conditions

In addition to static tests, dynamic material tests are also of crucial importance. Shimadzu offers both servo-hydraulic and electrically driven fatigue testing machines that provide precise and reliable data on the service life of materials and components. These machines enable high-frequency tests and long-term tests to analyse behaviour under real load conditions. With modern control systems and powerful software, different load scenarios can be simulated, which is particularly important in the automotive and aerospace industries.

Microhardness tester: Detailed insights into material properties

For precise measurement of the hardness of materials, Shimadzu offers micro hardness testers that enable virtually non-destructive measurements. The Vickers indentation test with variable weight force can be used to gain detailed insights into the wear behaviour of materials.

Shimadzu’s 150th anniversary emphasises its long tradition of quality and innovation. With Shimadzu’s universal testing machines, fatigue testing machines and microhardness testers, you can ensure that your products meet the highest quality standards.
