Testing systems for this are available from ZwickRoell, enabling automated testing as follows: Other options include active tracking of the plunger and a retractable needle; an HD camera can additionally be integrated to record fluid expulsion. These recordings can then be stored traceably with the test results. The machine can also optionally be equipped with monitoring systems to comply with the requirements of EN ISO 13849. Control and evaluation of these additional functions and of the complete test sequence is via ZwickRoell's testXpert III testing software. 2.1.2 Simulation and...

The ZwickRoell Group 2.4.1 Test on finished syringes as per ISO 11040 Parts 4 and 8 Fig. 2. Fully automatic testing system for insulin pens Some tests require a testing machine with additional torsion drive. The universal test device for syringes can also be used for tests on cartridges by means of suitable adapters. Torsion and leakage tests are described in ISO 80369. ISO 11040 covers pre-filled syringes. Parts 4 (Glass barrels for injectables and sterilized sub-assembled syringes ready for filling) and 8 (Requirements and test methods for finished pre-filled syringes) describe ten...

An injection needle consists of a tube in various lengths and inside and outside diameters which is beveled and ground at one end and can be held in various ways at the other end. Fig. 2. Parallel testing of syringes lengthy period. To reduce the testing time the testing machine can be upgraded to 6-8 test axes with the corresponding number of load cells. This enables individual force recording for each syringe. easy determination of torques under static axial load. Fig. 1. Serial testing of syringes The resistance to breakage of injection needles is determined in a twopoint flexure test as...
