6-Axis Robotic Automated Testing System
AT6
-
The Instron AT6 is a flexible, robot-assisted testing solution featuring six axes of motion, purpose-built to automate tensile, compression, flexural, and lap shear testing in alignment with widely used ASTM and ISO standards. Its modular design accommodates a broad array of materials—including metals, polymers, elastomers, films, composites, and sutures—at force capacities up to 600 kN. Capable of processing up to 500 specimens without operator intervention, the AT6 enables true unattended or “lights-out” operation, significantly increasing throughput around the clock. Optional modules include stations for specimen measurement, automated strain measurement, environmental temperature chambers, and multiple test frames for simultaneous testing. The system also integrates smoothly with auxiliary devices such as durometers, hardness testers, and surface roughness testers, making it a robust solution for high-volume, high-efficiency testing environments.

Optical Profilers
-
Finally, measurements of surface roughness and topography can be made for a price that's less than that of a stylus profilometer. The Profilm3D has sub-nanometer vertical resolution, which surpasses optical profilometers that cost 3x as much. It does so by using the same state-of-the-art measurement technologies as the most sensitive optical profilers available: vertical-scanning interferometry (VSI) and phase-shifting interferometry (PSI).

Rope Testers
-
The LMA Signal measures loss of metallic cross-sectional area (LMA) caused by corrosion, abrasion, etc. The LMA Signal is quantitative and can be calibrated. (Typically, a rope must be retired when the LMA exceeds 10%).The WRR Signal measures wire rope roughness (WRR). WRR is defined as the aggregate surface roughness of all wires in a rope. WRR is typically caused by and indicates internal and external corrosion pitting, broken wires and clusters of broken wires. The WRR signal is quantitative, and it is calibrated together with the LMA Signal.The LF Signal can indicate localized flaws (LF), for example, broken wires, corrosion pitting, etc. Because it is only qualitative - and cannot be calibrated - it is of limited value for assessing rope deterioration and for making rope retirement decisions.

Surface Profile
-
Surface profile: The degree of profile on the surface affects a coating’s overall performance and determines aspects such as adhesion, coverage and overall volume of coatings used. If the profile is too large the amount of coating required increases, otherwise there is a danger that the peaks remain uncoated - allowing rust spots to occur. If the profile is too small there may be an insufficient key for adequate adhesion.

Surface Cleanliness
-
Surface cleanliness: Soluble salts & ion specific contamination (sulphates, chlorides, nitrates etc.) which are often invisible to the eye, together with amine blush (for amine cured epoxy coatings) can result in premature coating failure, resulting in high re-coating and maintenance costs. Elcometer has a range of test equipment for assessing surface cleanliness prior to applying a coating.
