Several factors are driving manufacturers to try and reduce the size, and more importantly thickness, of semiconductors devices used to make microchips. As consumers push for gadgets that are smaller, lighter, yet more powerful, engineers must find wa...
Metallic Bone Plates need to undergo several tests before gaining approval as internal fixation devices of the skeletal system. One standard, ASTM F382-99, defines the test methods for single cycle bend testing (annex A1) and for determining the bendi...
ASTM F1264 Annex 3 is a test method for bending fatigue testing of intramedullary fixation devices (IMFD). This cyclic 4 point bend test determines the fatigue life at a specified bending moment or estimates the fatigue strength for a specified number ...
Bend testing (also flex or flexural testing) is commonly performed to measure the flexural strength and modulus of all types of materials and products. This test is performed on a universal testing machine (tensile testing machine or tensile test...
Along with ASTM D638, D790 is one of the most commonly used specifications in the plastics industry. This test measures the flexural strength and flexural modulus of reinforced and unreinforced plastics. These calculations allow you t...
Recently, a city government's engineering department approached us with a need to test large plastic sewer pipe liners for flexural modulus and strength according to ASTM D790. Our normal recommendation would be a dual column eXpert 2600 universa...
Spinal Implants are tested according to several ASTM standards. ASTM F1717 is intended to provide a basis for the mechanical comparison among past, present and future spinal implant assemblies. Three static and one fatigue mechanical test of a spinal c...
This test method aims to test the mechanical properties of an angled fixation device not the material component. Angled Fixation Devices are used to treat fractures. Annex 1 -Single Cycle Compression Bend Testing of Metallic Angled Orthopedic Fracture ...
Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is finding increased use in construction. FRC offers several advantages over rebar or wire mesh reinforced concrete including increased crack resistance, ductility, energy absorption, impact resistance and resi...
