Your Partner for Force, Materials and Torque Testing Equipment

Mecmesin, established in 1977, is a leading designer and manufacturer of tensile testers and torque measuring equipment. We offer a full range of precision test systems and instruments that are accurate, reliable and excellent value for money.

Operating under ISO 9001 quality standards, Mecmesin test solutions are used to guarantee the quality of components, materials and finished products, from factory floor through to the R&D laboratory – across all medical technology industries.

Our service is backed up by IQ, OQ and PQ document templates to support you in your process validation activities.

VectorProTM software is designed to help facilitate meeting FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, with its database architecture and strict operator permissions features. For MDR regulations, barcode reader input scans the UDI of a medical device and reports this alongside its test results.

Our products enable you to perform checks to ensure:

  • Conformance to standards
  • Optimised design
  • Efficient production
  • Minimum wastage
  • Cost savings
  • Quality

 Medical devices testing

Quality and reliability is key in a highly regulated environment, where patient safety is critical.

Operational, assembly, removal, and disassembly efforts can all be measured to protect and enhance brand reputation:

  • Syringe glide effort
  • Syringe pump calibration force
  • Biopsy sample gun trigger force
  • Drug delivery dial precision torque
  • Insulin pen functional performance
  • Inhaler disassembly resistance
  • Ophthalmic adaptive lens adjustment effort

Mecmesin’s MultiTest equipment securely clamps these medical devices for repeatable tension and compression testing whilst our loadcells accurately measure the wide range of loads involved.

Very small torque values are detected and precise alignment is guaranteed with our Helixa torque testing systems.

For all testers our barcode scanning feature automatically assigns the Unique Device Identifier to the test results for MDR compliant testing.

Connector and component testing

The physical strength of connectors and key components in medical assemblies can be tested for reliability in use.

Measurement of the efforts to assemble or disassemble a medical device, or test its resistance to breakage, requires suitable test equipment and correct gripping fixtures:

  • Luer design taper connector torque
  • Tubing pull-out resistance
  • Needle strength, bend resistance
  • Needle lancet retention
  • Stent disassembly resistance

Our range of OmniTestTM Universal Testing Machines enable the raw materials for packaging, products and components to be accurately characterised in tension and compression, from 2 N right up to 50 kN.

Mecmesin’s VectorProTM software is designed to help facilitate meeting the requirements of FDA 21 CFR Part 11, with its database architecture, operator permissions and audit-trail features. Extensometer connectivity and a comprehensive suite of materials testing calculations are included:

  • Ultimate tensile strength (UTS)
  • Stress and strain at break
  • Young’s Modulus
  • Yield and 0.2% offset yield
  • 3 and 4-point flexural modulus

Packaging systems testing

If you manufacture or supply primary, secondary or tertiary (transit) packaging, you need accurate and reliable testing systems to follow the stringent standards in force within the industry:

  • Openability - peel and tear - of sterile packaging
  • Puncture resistance of sharps containers
  • Penetration of elastomeric closures
  • Actuation force of pump and spray dispensers

Torque testing involves a range of tests designed for threaded closures. This includes measuring the torque to remove or apply the closure and also the measurement of the effort required to overcome critical safety features:

  • Child-Resistant Closures (CRC)
  • Evaluate push and twist designs
  • Breach tamper-evident features

Mecmesin’s versatile motorised testing equipment ensures constant rotational speed control. This is essential for delivering far superior repeatability and accuracy compared to manual torque testers.

A comprehensive range of fixtures hold flexible specimens in a uniform manner without affecting the test results.
