Automated Compression, Tensile, and Flexure Testing
The AT2 Automated XY Stage can be installed on any new or existing 5900 and 6800 Series universal testing systems to automate compression, tensile, and flexure testing of devices or components with multiple test points, or multiple components with repetitive test points. These systems are widely adopted in the biomedical and electronics industries to test a wide range of materials, devices, and components.
Within industries such as the medical device industry, many components, sub-assemblies, or end products have multiple elements, like leads, that need to be tested independently of one another. Using the Automated XY Stage System, the specimen is automatically relocated so that each element can be tested without having to re-install the specimen. Additionally, when initial alignment is critical for successful testing, the XY Stage Testing System provides the ability for repeatable and quick results, including applications like insertion and withdrawal testing or precision bend testing. The flexibility of the Automated XY Stage allows it to adapt for testing of many specimens, devices, or components.
