For a new lab, should we invest in a UTM or a specialized tester first?

This depends entirely on your testing scope. If your work involves varied materials and exploratory R&D, a UTM offers necessary flexibility. If your core activity is routine quality control on a specific material (e.g., testing every batch of incoming foam), starting with a specialized tester provides immediate efficiency, accuracy, and a faster return on investment.
