Come collegare i trasduttori ai sistemi Instron: quattro metodi
L’integrazione di sensori e trasduttori di terze parti in un sistema di prova Instron — che si tratti di forza, deformazione, temperatura, pressione o spostamento — richiede la scelta del metodo di connessione più adatto alla tua configurazione. Questo articolo illustra i quattro approcci supportati: ingresso analogico 0–10V, connessione razionalizzata con auto-identificazione e auto-calibrazione in Bluehill Universal, calibrazione polinomiale personalizzata per trasduttori non Instron e ingresso dati digitali tramite apparecchiature di terze parti come l’HBM QuantumX MX430B.

5 passi per un’automazione efficace dei test meccanici per i laboratori biomedicali nelle CDMO
Con la crescita della domanda di siringhe auto-disabilitanti, i laboratori delle CDMO devono affrontare una pressione crescente per aumentare la produttività dei test senza sacrificare l’accuratezza o la ripetibilità. Questa guida illustra cinque passaggi per selezionare, configurare e ottenere il massimo da un sistema di test meccanici basato su cobot: dalla valutazione delle esigenze del tuo laboratorio e la scelta dell’automazione giusta, fino all’ottimizzazione della raccolta dati e alla semplificazione della manutenzione.

Braided Rope Tensile Testing
My name is Landon Goldfarb and I am an applications engineer, which is really a fancy way of saying it is my job to successfully break anything thrown my way. This is the first in a series of stories cultivated from my time working in the applications lab highlighting unique applications and the novel solutions we have employed. At 8:00 AM, give or take, every morning, I arrive at our office – always excited to see what has shown up on our testing backlog. Perhaps elastomers for racing tires on a Monday and then moving on to artificial bone by Thursday. When people ask what kind of products we test, I will often respond by asking them what they did today. After looking back quizzically, they may say “I woke up, got dressed, had some juice, and then drove to work”. To which I could say, taking a deep breath first, “We may test the durability of the springs in your mattress, the elasticity in the fibers of your clothing, the torque necessary to open the juice packaging, and last but not least a myriad of functional tests on the individual components in a car.”

When You Don’t Take Advantage of Software Updates
As Technical Support Manager at the Instron® corporate headquarters, I have answered my share of customer questions and hopefully brought more clarity to testing operators. Through this kind of customer exposure, my team and I are constantly taking note of feedback to make our products better. In particular, we receive calculation requests, discover bugs, and think of new features for our software products. As we develop and release software updates, many of these suggestions are added.

Understanding Melt Flow Testing and Its Importance
Melt flow testing is a measure of the flow of a polymer when melted. The result is called the mass-flow rate (MFR) or volume-flow rate (MVR).

The Truth About Strain Gauge Load Cells vs. Pressure Transducers
Load cells independently and directly measure the force being applied to specimens. Pressure transducers measure force indirectly from the oil pressure observed in the cylinder. Which is superior? The answer is simple: Load cell technology due to the fact that some of the pressure in a hydraulic system has nothing to do with the load being applied to the specimen.
