This video demonstrates a tensile test performed on the soft tissues using a temperature controlled bath with BioPuls submersible pneumatic grips and an Instron advanced video extensometer (AVE). The ...

This video shows tensile testing of composite tow specimens using AutoX750 Extensometer from Instron to ASTM D4018 standard from Instron. These tow specimens can prove to be difficult to test due to ...

Instron’s AutoX 750 high accuracy of +/-1 µm, along with a maximum travel of 750 mm and multiple knife edge options make it an ideal extensometer for tensile, flexure and compression testing of ...

President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Although less commonly measured than the in-plane tensile properties of a unidirectional (UD) composite, interlaminar tensile strength is an important material ...

Adhesive bonding is a critical part of the structural designer’s toolkit, whether components are metallic or composite. The availability of high-quality, reliable and reproducible data is central to ...

Material testing is important in big industry, where manufacturers must be able to trust the properties of the raw materials they’re using. The rest of us generally take a supplier’s word for it that ...
