ASTM D1002 describes the procedure for evaluating the shear strength of adhesives used for bonding metals. Adhesive testing is critical for understanding the relative strength of different materials, as well as identifying the effects of environmental conditions and aging on the strength and durability of a bond.

The Instron Autoinjector Testing System’s fixtures are designed to minimize side loading during cap removal and support common industry device geometries, while offering flexibility to easily accommodate customized devices.

Instron’s Autoinjector Testing System uses a high-resolution video camera, along with the machine vision camera, to provide critical visuals to aid in root cause analysis when a device failure occurs.

Bluehill Universal uses simplified test types that empower users to develop and change method parameters with ease, while offering the flexibility to readily accommodate future devices without requiring Instron’s support.

Instron’s latest generation Autoinjector Testing System can perform full functionality testing on a wide range of drug delivery devices — such as needle shield and button-activated devices, as well as safety syringes.

Instron's training courses help to improve the confidence and knowledge of your operators by teaching them how to operate your Instron system to its full capability, increasing productivity and efficiency in your lab.

Did you know regular preventative maintenance can reduce the risk of accidents and prolong the lifespan of your testing instruments? In this video, we hear from Instron Service employees from around the globe and reflect on the importance of preventative maintenance.

ASTM D1894 and ISO 8295 are standardized test methods used for determining static (μ_s) and kinetic (μ_k) coefficients of friction of plastic film and sheeting. In order to ensure that plastic films perform as expected, the frictional properties of these films must be characterized and controlled.
