New-generation universal testing machines that provide not only highly reliable data, but are convenient and easy to use that is where our development starts.

Shimadzu's new AG-X series delivers the world's highest levels of performance and is convenient to use, with specifically designed software(TRAPEZIUM X) that provides a combination of enhanced functionality and operability, and helps users reach new levels of strength testing.

Welcome to the world's next generation of universal testing machines.

We believe the high precision, convenience and unique design of our AG-X series testing machines will provide "The Door to the Future" for each and every one of our customers.

Typically, testing machine designs have a lifeless "machine-like" feel to them, a feeling accentuated by the use of monotonous colors such as black or white.

Can operators really work comfortably, surrounded by this kind of equipment?
This question was my starting point when I began designing the AG-X series.

"If the work space is filled with monochromatic, sterile testing machines which create an environment that seems shrouded in dark clouds, then lets cut through those clouds with a sword-like design and create a space that feels as open and free as blue sky."

Based on this concept, Shimadzu designed the AG-X series with a simple shape and bright, refreshing colors that transform testing environments into spaces that feel bright and open.

Future testing environments should be pleasant spaces with an open, airy feeling, like a caf
