ADMET’s mechanical property testing systems have proven to be accurate and reliable. This is especially true for medical devices manufacturers, where the company’s universal testing systems, help surgeons and doctors all over the world make decisions for their patients based on mechanical property data. The mechanical property data exhibits tensile strength, bend strength, fatigue/durability, torsional capacity, and reliability for a number of devices.

Medical devices all have small parts- The Testing Profile calls for high speed /low displacement/low force testing system to run
Small components, connectors, assemblies, and parts are in every medical device. These parts may be bonded together by various means, or the parts may be threaded parts, or the parts may be meant to disconnect and reconnect easily. By applying a tensile or compressive or torsional load to these parts in a cyclic testing profile we can determine how well these parts will endure while involved in a medical procedure. Do you have small parts that you would like to test? How have you tested these parts in the past?
ASTM F543 Annex 3 Axial Pullout Strength Metallic Bone Screws
Metallic Bone Screws- Which one, where, how….
Metallic bone screws are implemented in many applications within the body. Screws stabilize the bone while it heals. Standardization of the dimensions and tolerances of the key features of these screws is intended to allow the implants from one manufacturer to be used with associated instruments, such as taps and drills, from different manufacturers and serve as a baseline for future screw products.
The food is as fresh as the seal it’s under
What strength adhesive do you use to adhere a seal to a container? What about a thin film to the top of a tray? What about securing pharmaceuticals in blister packs? All of these adhesive attachments need to be tested. We tested a well know potato chip manufacturer’s package.
Are those white fillings strong enough to last?
10 tips to choosing the perfect universal testing system
Choosing the right testing machine can help lower costs and accelerate product development. Whether a company is buying its first testing system or is looking for a different type of system to perform tests on a new product, purchasing a testing system is an important decision. We’ve put together 10 easy steps to help you select the perfect system for your testing application.
ADMET introduces a new member to its popular eXpert 2600 series dual column testing systems.
ADMET is proud to introduce a new member to its popular eXpert 2600 series dual column testing systems. Over our 21 years in business, we’ve realized that fitting a 6 foot tall universal testing machine in some office or lab spaces can be a challenge. In addition, most biomedical, metal, ceramic, adhesive, and hard plastic testing applications do not require 48 inches of vertical crosshead travel. The ADMET eXpert 2600ST solves these problems by featuring shorter columns that allow it to fit almost anywhere.

How to Perform ASTM D903 Peel or Stripping Strength of Adhesive Bonds
ASTM D903 is one of the most commonly performed adhesive strength tests. An adhesive is bonded to a material and peeled back at 180 degree angle to measure average peel strength. This post is intended to help you understand the basic test procedure and the equipment needed to perform this test with certainty. When you are ready to test your adhesives to this standard, please refer to and follow the steps in the official ASTM D903 specification.
