Instron 5969 Dual Column Load Frame

5960 Series systems perform tensile, compression, bend, peel, tear, puncture, creep, and cyclic tests on all raw materials and finished goods. The performance and versatility of the 5960 Series systems make them the industry standard throughout the biomedical, automotive, and electronics industries to test materials and products made from plastics, metals, elastomers, adhesives, biomedical devices, composites,  textiles, and more. Control of the testing system is carried out via Instron Bluehill software. Setting test parameters, operating the system, and collecting test data is done through the software program. The Instron system can be used alongside the Extensometers or Digital Image Correlator (DIC) to measure the local strain field.
