A material testing system that uses at least one hydraulic grip is improved with cable clips that are attachable to a respective lateral side of each hydraulic grip wedge. Each cable clip has another end that extends to engage a cable(s) extending from a corresponding wedge retention spring hole. The cable(s) enable manual extension of a wedge retention spring for engagement and disengagement from the hydraulic grip wedge. The cable clip maintains the cable in a noninterfering position during operational use of the material testing system.

A method and a system for analyzing a physical characteristic of a film sample are described herein. The system includes a material holder system configured to hold the film sample; a dart testing system configured to test a physical characteristic of the film sample; and a moving system configured to move the held film sample to be analyzed or tested between stations. The moving system is configured to move the held film sample in the material holder system to the dart testing system.

A fixing jig is provided, including a supporting base, a fixing plate, and a fixing component. The supporting base includes a first upper surface. The fixing plate is disposed on the supporting base. A side of the fixing plate is pivotally connected to the supporting base and includes a second upper surface, a bottom surface, and via a hole. The fixing component presses the fixing plate on the second upper surface. The fixing jig can fix an object pending testing and allows one flexible electric circuit board of the object pending testing to be exposed outside of the fixing jig, so that when performing a pull force test, this can allow an angle between two flexible electric circuit boards to be 90 degrees, thereby improving accuracy of an experimental result.

A mold coating agent test device includes a frame positioning portion and a connection positioning portion. The frame positioning portion positions a frame portion of a metal mold such that the frame portion of the metal mold is positioned at a predetermined position when the metal mold is placed on a metal block. The connection positioning portion positions a connecting portion such that the connecting portion that is a portion provided in the frame portion and to which a drive unit that applies a force is connected is positioned at a predetermined position when the metal mold is placed on the metal block.

The invention relates to a fastening arrangement (3) for fastening a sample holder (7) to a force measuring device (1), having a sample holder (7), and a counterpart holder (5) on the side of the force measuring device, which is formed or arranged on the force measuring device (1) or is fixedly connectable to the force measuring device (1), wherein the counterpart holder (5) has at least one sample holder receptacle (19, 21), wherein the sample holder (7) has a planar abutment surface (39) and the sample holder receptacle (19, 21) has a flat counterpart abutment surface (23), wherein the sample holder (7) furthermore has at least one positioning element (41, 43) and one fixing element (45), and the sample holder receptacle (19, 21) has at least one counterpart positioning element (25, 27) and one counterpart fixing element (29), wherein the positioning element (41, 43) and the counterpart positioning element (25, 27) are configured to uniquely define a relative position between the sample holder (7) and the counterpart holder (5) together with the abutment surface (39) and the counterpart abutment surface (23), and wherein the fixing element (45) and the counterpart fixing element (29) are configured to hold the sample holder (5) and the counterpart holder (5) against one another and to force the abutment surface (39) and the counterpart abutment surface (23) against one another.

The mounting jig assembly includes a jig body and a clamp assembly. The jig body includes a top surface, a bottom surface, a front wall, a rear wall, and a pair of side walls. The jig body is configured to support the test component on the testing assembly with the test component in contact with the top surface and the bottom surface in contact with the testing platform. The jig body defines an elongated opening that extends between the top surface and the bottom surface. The top surface being oriented obliquely with respect to the bottom surface. The clamp assembly is moveable between a clamped position and an unclamped position. In the clamped position the clamp assembly inhibits movement of the test component with respect to the jig body. In the unclamped position the clamp assembly permits movement of the test component with respect to the jig body.

A tensile test fixture for quick testing of materials with low transverse strength and relatively high longitudinal strength. After the tensile test fixture is loaded into a universal testing machine, such as a two-part load frame, a first test specimen is aligned and tensile tested. Alignment of the first test specimen ensures that all consecutive test specimens are aligned within the tensile test fixture without further alignment required.
