Supporting the mission of biomedical researchers and manufacturers
Key options for biomedical testing:
- 12 kN force capacity
- Conducts orthopaedic studies to 4x body weight
- Additional axial/torsional capability
- Higher speeds, higher torque and more continuous rotation to test a wider range of materials
- Precise low-force measurement
- Easily tests fragile, intricate or lightweight specimen
- Multi-sample fatigue fixture
- Triggers independent data acquisition for 15 samples at once
Use MTS Acumen systems to test:
- Orthopaedic constructs: small joints, c-spine, finger, ankle
- Trauma devices: plates, screws, constucts
- Biomaterials: plastics, soft tissues, hydrogels, ligaments, bones
- Dental materials/devices: cements, plastics, metals
- Vascular devices: stents, grafts
- Packaging and consumables: needles, syringes, packaging, tubing
