These servohydraulic test systems deliver the performance, versatility and accuracy required to properly characterize the dynamic and static properties of an extreme range of biomedical materials and components. When combined with a wide range of grips, fixtures, and orthopaedic sub-systems, they provide capabilities from static testing to complex kinematic studies of skeletal tissues and orthopaedic constructs.
Precision-machined connections between the actuator cylinder and end-caps offer consistent alignment
Fatigue-rated actuators incorporated into the cross-beam provide testing reliability
Integrated T-slot table with channels to contain spilled fluids means less test interruptions
Restricted actuator speed as it moves into position protects specimen and operator
Bionix tabletop test systems incorporate Model 370.02 load frames that are available in standard or extended heights. |

The MTS SilentFlo 515.04 was specifically designed for use with a single MTS Landmark® or Bionix® load frame. For applications requiring a force range of 1–25 kN (0.2–5.5 kip) and a maximum average flow rate of 15.1 lpm (4 gpm), this HPU provides all the benefits of proven SilentFlo technology at a fraction of the cost.
