Mecmesin Force and Torque Testing Solutions for Quality Control in the Medical Industry

For over 35 years, Mecmesin has been providing medical device manufacturers with force and torque testing solutions to ensure quality control of materials, components, packaging and finished products.

Needle and Syringe Force Testing

Needles and syringes need to perform precisely to specification or they may seriously limit the ability of a health care professional to effectively and safely treat their patient. Force and torque testing in development and production enables the manufacturers to guarantee consistent quality and performance of their products. This article examines seven typical testing applications within this field By David Mercer

Tensile Testing

A tensile test is a way of determining how something will react when a force is applied to it in tension – when it is stretched. It may be performed to assess the joint strength of two or more components, or to ascertain the strength parameters of a material. For instance, a tensile test on a child’s remote control car could determine the disassembly force of the aerial from the body casing. More fundamentally, the tensile properties of the material from which the toy is fabricated may be determined by tensile testing.
