Medical device force and torque testing solutions

Explore our range of medical device testing equipment The medical devices and pharmaceuticals sector is highly regulated, driven by compliance and auditing processes. Safety requirements for devices are paramount since they are predominantly used on humans. This puts a heavy emphasis on quality control of devices, during the development, production and packaging phases, to ensure they meet exacting standards thereby minimising the risks to patients and users. Testing the mechanical strength of materials, assemblies and finished medical devices is a key part of the quality assurance process. Manufacturers...

Torque testing Helixa/Vortex The Mecmesin range of bench-top torque testing systems has been designed to measure clockwise and counter-clockwise torque from a few N.mm up to 10 N.m. The precise measurement of very low torque values in N.mm and ozf.in is often required for small medical devices and their components, which rely on a minimal friction fit for smooth operation. The Helixa is a precision torque testing system, powered by Emperor software, which can be fitted with torque sensors from 0.1 – 6 N.m capacity thus allowing even the finest of measurements for medical devices. It features...

Force testing OmniTest/MultiTest The Mecmesin range of single-column test systems is ideal for measuring tensile/compressive forces up to 7 kN. They fit neatly on a workbench .5 occupying very little space and can be fitted with interchangeable loadcells to cover precision measurements from upwards of a few grammes-force. Various models are available to suit your medical device testing applications including extended column-length versions for measuring highly elastic materials. At the heart of Mecmesin test systems are 2 software platforms - the new VectorPro software and the established Emperor...

VectorPro Software Medical packaging Solutions To assist with your organisation becoming compliant with FDA 21 CFR Part 11, Mecmesin software is packed with features and functionality to ensure data integrity. It helps a manufacturer to track who did what, when they did it, and why, in case a faulty batch of medical devices or pharmaceuticals is accidentally sent to market. FDA 21 CFR Part 11 Core functionality of VectorPro software includes: • QL database - stores data for a secure audit trail S of information • ctive Directory – ensures management controls A around logins, User ID & password-complexity...

Medical device Grips and fixtures Medical devices, their components and sub-assemblies all come in various shapes, sizes and materials. To achieve repeatability when testing it is important to hold the devices consistently and securely without them slipping but also without gripping them so tightly that the material is deformed. Mecmesin has a standard range of tensile grips and compression fixtures for the most common applications. They can be easily fitted to all test stands, force gauges and loadcells to provide the ultimate in flexibility. For torque applications chucks and vices are available...
