The universal testing system has been fortified against shock and vibration.

Instron, Norwood, MA, has announced its 3400 and 6800 Series high-force universal testing systems, available in force capacities ranging up to 300 kN. Reduction in debris ingress has been achieved through gasketing and a patent-pending airflow design. The frames have been fortified against shock and vibration, allowing for continuous testing at the maximum rated frame capacity and have an abrasion-resistant coating on the 12-mm metal work surface for durability. They incorporate maintenance-free brushless AC servomotors, supporting continuous cyclic, creep, and relaxation testing for up to 10 days. The 3400 Series provides a data acquisition rate up to 1000 Hz and the 6800 Series increases the data acquisition rate up to 5000 Hz.
