Glove Strength Test
Medical professionals put on and take off gloves many times daily. Gloves must be flexible enough to put on easily but strong enough not to tear at the cuff or fingers.
Mask Elastic Band Test
Face masks are worn by medical professionals, construction personnel, and by much of the world in the Covid-19 era. The elastic band attachments must be strong enough to stretch and pull over a person’s head or around their ears.
Disinfecting Wipes Strength Test
The ubiquitous disinfecting wipe is an invaluable and inexpensive way to sanitize surfaces, from private homes to hospitals and public businesses. Strength testing ensures that the wipe will remain intact during use.
Film Puncture Test
Plastic films are used in a variety of packaging for medical and consumer products. This unique fixture punctures the material, thereby determining its strength.
Syringe Activation Force Test
Determines the amount of force a medical professional must exert to push the plunger through the barrel of a syringe. Syringes may be empty or pre-filled.
Needle Sharpness Test
Hypodermic needles must be sharp enough to penetrate a bottle seal or a patient’s body tissues. Sharpness testing ensures effective drug delivery or a clean puncture through a bottle seal.
