Thin Film Whitepaper
To ensure that thin films being manufactured meet the required expectations, companies must obtain an accurate mechanical profile of their products. The most common standards followed for testing thin films are ASTM Standard D882 and ISO Standard 527-3, including test procedures specific for TYE (Tensile Strength, Yield, and Elongation) and for Modulus.

FDA 21 CFR Part 11 Implementation – Bluehill Universal’s Traceability Module White Paper
The Traceability Module within Bluehill Universal can help meet the technical requirements of FDA 21 CFR Part 11. This document outlines the three key areas in Bluehill Universal (Security, Audit Trail, and Signatures) and also provides a row-by-row interpretation of how Bluehill Universal addresses each of the Part 11 items. Ultimately, each end user should perform their own assessment and create appropriate work instructions that cover the Instron system, Bluehill Universal, the Windows file systems, and the user’s Quality Management system.

Analyzing performance of Universal Testing Systems using Process Capability Analysis
Manufacturers/OEMs are constantly striving to develop processes that will produce defect-free products. In this need for zero defect solution, experts strategize different ways to monitor process performances. One such metric is the Process Capability Analysis (PCA). The fundamental concept of PCA requires experts to understand variation of data from the pre-defined tolerance limits for an individual process. As Instron systems typically involve the process of testing and measuring, companies investigate this process’ consistency over multiple samples, over multiple batches and over multiple systems installed at different sites.

Equivalency Testing of Bluehill 3 and Bluehill Universal – a Statistical Review
For medical device companies as part of software validation, GR&R testing is required to prove that new software is capable of producing the same results as the previous software version. Instron conducted a series of tests to prove software equivalence between Bluehill 3 and Bluehill Universal as part of this validation process.

Understanding gage R&R concepts and its significance for Instron systems
This paper is intended to review the fundamental concept of Gage R&R studies also known as Measurement System Analysis (MSA). Different methods such as ANOVA and Xbar/R can be applied to conduct gage R&R analysis. The paper also presents case studies to understand applications of gage R&R in destructive testing and non-destructive testing and its significance with Instron systems. Furthermore, the concept of type I gage study also known is precision-to-tolerance ratio (P/T) is explained in detail here.

ISO 6892-1:2016: Ambient Tensile Testing of Metallic Materials
The imminent release of ISO 6892-1:2016 will provide further clarification on the significant changes that were introduced in ISO 6892-1:2009, including the testing rates based on strain rate (Method A). To better clarify the requirements of Method A, ISO 6892-1:2016 now includes two clearly defined approaches: Method A1 (Closed-Loop Strain Control) and Method A2 (Constant Crosshead Separation Rate).

Strain Measurement Techniques for Composites Coupon Testing
Most approaches to strain measurement in Composites Coupon testing use contacting methods involving bonded strain gauges or clip-on extensometers. Recent developments in non-contacting strain measurement mean these systems now offer similar performance to traditional contacting systems, as well as providing significant other benefits such as the ability to provide full field strain maps.
