40 Extrusion International 6/2025 40 INDUSTRY NEWS India & Asia anatomical models or in a fluid-flowing hose system. The height-adjustable test level enables ergonomic working and quick setup. System-controlled process- es minimise operating errors and increase process re- liability. And thanks to its modular architecture, the system can be easily expanded – for example, with additional sensors, actuators or customer-specific re- quirements. This allows the test solution to grow with the requirements of companies and remain usable in the long term. The precise feeding of test samples al- lows cyclical test requirements to be implemented ac- curately within anatomical models or individual test setups. Even with long samples, the feed and hold- ing mechanism ensures high-precision measurement results. At the same time, the elimination of forces caused by friction/gravity allows data to be collected reliably. Submersible grippers with integrated cath- eter centring and individually adjustable clamping force also ensure particularly precise handling and ex- act positioning of the samples – even under demand- ing test conditions. Compliant, auditable and robust in regulatory terms The testing system meets all relevant internation- al standards (ISO 10555, DIN EN ISO 25539, ASTM F623, etc.) and can be adapted to customer-specific requirements. Time-synchronised video recording – above and be- low water – and direct display of results in testXpert enable transparent documentation and also allow ret- rospective detailed analysis of complex issues in the an- atomical model and regulatory approvals. The holding/ feed unit neutralises friction and weight in uences of the test specimen and ensures accurate force measure- ment data – a decisive factor for the validation of com- plex product designs. Cost-effectiveness and investment security In addition to its technical performance, the system also offers impressive economic bene ts: the salt-re - sistant materials guarantee durability, while the light- weight pegboard system with numbered rows and col- umns enables reproducible setups, quick cleaning and reduced downtime. The high availability of the system increases productivity in the laboratory and reduces op- erating costs in the long term. Clinical testing rede ned The horizontal testing system is more than just a test- ing machine – it is a strategic tool for research and de- velopment, quality assurance, innovation promotion and ef ciency enhancement. It combines technical in - telligence, clinical relevance and economic scalability in a compact system. ZwickRoell GmbH & Co.
