Como conectar transdutores a sistemas Instron: quatro métodos
A integração de sensores e transdutores de terceiros em um sistema de ensaio da Instron — seja para força, deformação, temperatura, pressão ou deslocamento — requer a escolha do método de conexão adequado para sua configuração. Este artigo aborda as quatro abordagens suportadas: entrada analógica de 0–10 V, conexão racionalizada com autoidentificação e autocalibração no Bluehill Universal, calibração polinomial personalizada para transdutores não Instron e entrada de dados digitais via equipamentos de terceiros, como o HBM QuantumX MX430B.

5 etapas para uma automação eficaz de ensaios mecânicos para laboratórios biomédicos em CDMOs
À medida que a demanda por dispositivos de seringa com auto-desativação cresce, os laboratórios de CDMOs enfrentam uma pressão crescente para aumentar a produtividade dos ensaios sem sacrificar a precisão ou a repetibilidade. Este guia apresenta cinco etapas para selecionar, configurar e obter o máximo de um sistema de ensaios mecânicos baseado em cobot — desde avaliar as necessidades do seu laboratório e escolher a automação certa até otimizar a coleta de dados e simplificar a manutenção.

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.
