ASTM F1264 Intramedullary Fixation Device Torsion & Bend Fatigue Testing Equipment

The UTDS series Dynamic/Fatigue Testing machine used for bone needle,  bending intramedullary nail fatigue test is mainly used for biomechanical performance testing of various materials, including artificial blood vessels, soft tissues, bones, bone plates, and vertebrae Interfusion device, knee joint, spine Dynamic and static mechanical tests on materials such as column fixators, metal coatings, hip joints, and intramedullary nails, including tension, compression, bending, and torsion.

ASTM F1264 is a standard specification used to describe the design and mechanical function of intramedullary fixation devices (IMFDs). This specification covers IMFDs used for surgical fixation of the skeletal system. In addition to classification, terminology, labeling, and material specifications, it also includes four standard testing methods: 

1, static four point bending test method (Annex A1), 

2, static torsion test method (Annex A2), 

3, bending fatigue test method (Annex A3), 

4, bending fatigue test method for IMFD locking screws (Annex A4). 

Main Parameter of the fatigue test machine:

Max. dynamic load: ±10KN  Accuracy ±1%

Max. static load: ±10kN

Dynamic fluctuation: Less than ±1%FS

Actuator max. stroke: ±50mm, accuracy ±0.5%FS

Amplitude at Max. frequency: ±1mm

Max. Frequency: 0.1HZ~15Hz

Max. line velocity: 150mm/s
