Instron’s automated materials testing systems are engineered to improve laboratory throughput, test repeatability, and operator safety, while freeing up skilled personnel to focus on higher-value tasks. These automated testing solutions are available as complete turnkey systems or as modular upgrades compatible with existing Instron testing machines. Both options are fully customizable to meet your specific testing requirements and offer advanced material handling and test control capabilities. Standardized configurations are available for tensile testing, flexural testing, and compression testing of materials including plastics, thin films, metals, and finished components.
AT3 3-Axis Non-Robotic Automated Testing System
The Instron AT6 Automated Testing System utilizes an innovative design for the automatic tensile and/or flexural testing of metals, plastics, thin films, components, elastomers, sutures, and composites. Conforming to ISO and ASTM standards for a wide range of materials, this system has a flexible platform to deliver high throughput with repeatable results for a variety of testing needs.
AT6 6-Axis Robotic Automated Testing System
The Instron AT6 Automated Testing System utilizes an innovative design for the automatic tensile and/or flexural testing of metals, plastics, thin films, components, elastomers, sutures, and composites. Conforming to ISO and ASTM standards for a wide range of materials, this system has a flexible platform to deliver high throughput with repeatable results for a variety of testing needs.
AT2 Automated XY Stage
The AT2 Automated XY Stage can be installed on any new or existing 6800 or 5900 Series universal testing system to automate compression, tensile, and flexure testing of devices or components with multiple test points or multiple components with repetitive test points. These systems are widely adopted in the biomedical and electronics industries to test a wide range of materials, devices, and components.
ElectroPuls® Automated XY Stage
The Instron Automated XY Stage for the ElectroPuls test instrument is designed for repetitive and multilocation durability testing. It can easily be adapted to suit many different testing scenarios with many different specimens, devices, and components, including electronic devices, touch-sensitive panels, keyboards, performance footwear, and clothing..
Autoinjector Testing System
Developed in close partnership with pharmaceutical device manufacturers and CDMOs, 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. This system measures a variety of essential performance requirements, including cap removal, dose accuracy, activation force, injection time, needle depth, click detection, and needle guard lockout – allowing labs to meet internal quality requirements and international standards such as ISO 11608.
Automated Carousel Testing System
Instron’s Automated Carousel Testing System utilizes an innovative, adaptable design for testing of medical vials, cartridges, and pre-filled syringes. The small footprint allows it to be put on standard lab benches adding automation to even the smallest labs. It is designed with easy wipe-down surfaces and stainless steel covers for biomedical environments. Commonly configured to automate testing of residual seal force (RSF) and compression testing.
CT6 Cobot Test System
The CT6 cobot testing system introduces the benefits of automation to the testing of biomedical devices and components. This system pairs a collaborative robot with a 6800 or 5900 Series universal testing system to increase the efficiency of small to mid-sized testing labs that require a high degree of flexibility in their testing systems. The CT6 is designed to handle a wide range of medical components including drug delivery, sample collection, and wound closure products.
6800 Series Multi-Station Test Frame
The 6800 Series Multi-Station System offers enhanced throughput with its ability to perform simultaneous, independent tests on up to five separate specimens using a single load frame. Based on our standard 68TM-30 testing frame (30 kN capacity), this system is especially suitable when test times are lengthened due to high elongation or slow test speeds. If your test methods and expected results are similar for the specimens you are testing, this system is the ideal solution for cost-effective and efficient materials testing. This system will help labs keep up with the high throughput demands of high speed or multiple production lines.
