SYSTEM FOR ACCELERATED TESTING OF SILICONE DRAINAGE IN SYRINGES
A centrifugation approach used to accelerate current empirical methods used to investigate silicone drainage in syringes is disclosed. A siliconized syringe is placed into a holder of a centrifuge in a predefined orientation. Centrifugation of the syringe is activated at a predetermined G rate and for a period of intended simulation time and is ended as that time elapses. The time can be a function of intended simulation time, acceleration due to gravity, square of centrifuge revolution rate, and distance from center of rotor hub to matching point on the syringe barrel. One or more injection functionality parameters of the syringe is assessed after the elapsed period of time. A bucket fixture for retaining one or more syringes in the predefined orientation is also disclosed.
TESTING TOOL FOR FLEXIBLE DISPLAY
A testing tool for testing a flexible display includes a platform, a first mechanical component and a second mechanical component. The platform includes a plane. The first mechanical component is disposed on the plane to drive the flexible display to move, wherein the first mechanical component includes a first clamping unit connected to a first end of the flexible display. The second mechanical component is disposed on the plane opposite to the first mechanical component, wherein the second mechanical component includes a second clamping unit connected to a second end of the flexible display.

Torsion testing machine and methods for additive builds
A system can include a torsion applicator (e.g., a torsion motor and shaft) configured to apply a torque to a test article that is additively built on and attached to a build plate. The system can include at least one twist sensor and at least one torque sensor. A method for determining quality of an additively manufactured article or batch thereof can include torsion testing at least one additively manufactured test article that is built on and attached to a build plate while the at least one test article is still attached to the build plate.
