The first universal testing machine was the inspiration of Tinius Olsen, an inventor passionate about finding new ways to test the limits of materials. By 1880, he had proven and patented enough of his revolutionary ideas and designs to create an entire line of testing machines and launch his own company. Today, Tinius Olsen is managed by the fifth generation of the Olsen family and has long since emerged as a global leader in the manufacture of materials testing equipment. With the emergence and growth of new materials, from engineering plastics to advanced composites, the company's product line has expanded exponentially. Likewise, its third-party accredited technical team supports an ever-growing worldwide customer base. Tinius Olsen is an essential resource for anyone with materials to test.
