Application:
investigation of the sliding force of intracardiac catheter
Key features:
- Z005 horizontal, materials testing machine, Fmax 5 kN
- test speed 0.0005…3000 mm/min
- heated water bath
- grips an heartmodel
- test device for measuring piston frictional forces with variable penetration angle
- videoCapturing Plus
- Option: synchronized torsion axis
- Option testXpert II” Expanded Traceability according to FDA 21 CFR Part 11“
Advantages and benefits:
- Examination of catheter in body similar conditions
- Measurement of the friction coefficient of catheters, guide wires or other minimally invasive instruments (flexible endoscopes)
- Several 3D models can be simultaneously placed in or outside of the water bath
- Force sensors before and / or after the model attached
- tracking of the catheter through controlled opening / closing of the grips possible
