Universal Testing Systems include electromechanical series and industrial series to perform static testing, including tensile and compression applications.

Dynamic testing systems are used to perform fatigue, fracture mechanics, bi-axial, multi-axial, high strain rate and thermo-mechanical fatigue tests.

Impact resistance is one of the most important properties for component designers to consider. Impact resistance is a critical measure of service life and it involves the perplexing problem of product safety and liability.

Automated Testing Systems enable a new dimension of testing productivity, improve safety, reduce variability, save time and increase throughput. Options are tailored to your testing operations and throughput requirements.

The Instron line of CEAST Rheology systems are used to measure the rheological properties of thermoplastics to characterize the polymer melt flow behavior in the process conditions.

HDT and Vicat systems are used to characterize the behavior of plastic materials at high temperatures, measuring the heat deflection temperature (HDT) and the Vicat softening temperature (Vicat).

The Instron line of low and medium capacity torsion testers provide dependable mulit-turn capability. Available in capacities ranging from 22 - 5,650 N-m (200 - 50,000 in lb), these systems are ideal for many applications.
