Non-destructive view of internal structure pre and post force.
Target customer
Public and private research groups focused on biomaterials and tissue mechanical characterization.
Additional information
Fatigue tests allow us to know how is the behaviour when cyclic load are applied. It is used for life expectancy of biomaterials and biological tissues.
Customer benefits
High full-scale cell load.
Target customer
Public and private research groups focused on biomaterials and tissue mechanical characterization.
Additional information
Dynamic tests allow us to know how is the behaviour along time. It is used for viscoelastic properties of biomaterials and biological tissues.
Customer benefits
High full-scale cell load.
Target customer
Public and private research groups focused on biomaterials and tissue mechanical characterization.
Additional information
Tensile, pure shear and planar tension are the tests inside the uniaxial group. Samples are stretched along an axis by measuring force and displacement. Cycling protocols can be integrated into the mechanical test. Mechanical and viscoelastic properties can be studied. Force is measured by means of load cells.
