The production of auto-disable (AD) safe-injection devices is a core activity for many contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs). Mechanical testing assesses the safety and efficacy of AD syringes before they go to market. With the AD device industry set to grow to over $13.3 billion by 2028, laboratories within CDMOs will perform more tests more frequently. Here we look at how cobot-based systems can help these labs cope with growing workloads by maximizing repeatability and efficiency.

Alignment Tips for the AutoX750 Extensometer The AutoX750 automatic contacting extensometer is simultaneously capable of long travel, fast setup, reliable positioning, and sub-micron precision. For all its capabilities, it is still a complex machine requiring careful setup and maintenance. Different lab conditions may call for it to be repositioned or moved, which will require the AutoX750 to be realigned. If you’re thinking about doing this yourself, then this guide is for you.

In this video Instron Applications Engineer, Charlie Pryor, discusses how a 3-jaw chuck is a useful accessory to have in the lab for compression, tensile, torsion, rigidity, and tack testing applications. Compatible with Instron MT torsion testers, universal testing machines, and the torsion add-on, the 3-jaw chuck can be used to mount a variety of attachments, including probes, screwdriver bits, custom-made adapters, and can even be used to clamp directly onto specimens.
