Instron® AT3 | Configured for Flex Testing

The Instron® TestMaster AT3 Automated Testing System uses an innovative three-axis design for automatic tensile testing of thin films. Normal tensile testing of thin films can prove challenging, but the versatile AT3 makes it easy, improving repeatability, safety, and efficiency by automating everything from measurement to specimen handling and removal.

The AT3 automated testing system utilizes an innovative, three axis design for automatic tensile testing of plastics and other lightweight materials. With a smaller footprint than the AT6 robotic system, the AT3 provides a simple and compact solution while still maintaining high throughput and accuracy.

The Instron® AT3 Automated Testing System utilizes an innovative, adaptable design for testing a variety of materials including: rigid plastics, elastomers, rubber, thin film, foam, and metals. In this video, the AT3 is testing medical gloves to EN 455-2: “Medical gloves for single use - Requirements and testing for physical properties” but can also be used for common thin film testing including ASTM D882: “Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Thin Plastic Sheeting.”

The Instron® AT3 Automated Testing System utilizes an innovative, adaptable design for testing a variety of materials, including: rigid plastics, elastomers, rubber, thin film, foam, and metals. In this video, the AT3 is testing foil specimens for electric vehicle batteries. Normal tensile testing of foils can prove challenging, but the versatile AT3 makes it easy, improving repeatability, safety, and efficiency by automating everything from measurement to specimen handling and removal. With a smaller footprint than the AT6 robotic system, the AT3 provides a simple and compact solution while still maintaining high throughput and accuracy.
