Instron: Comparison of Testing Systems Conducting Plastics Tensile Test to ISO 527-2

The ISO 527 standard is widely recognized in the plastics industry as a reliable method for determining the tensile properties of plastic materials. This video focuses on the specific requirements of the ISO 527-2 standard and how different testing systems can help achieve compliance while highlighting the potential time savings that can be achieved by using different solutions such as grips, specimen measurement devices, extensometry, and software features.

By using our recommended testing solutions for testing to ISO 527-2, you can significantly streamline your testing process while ensuring accuracy and reliability. For instance, the use of automatic grips and alignment aids can help save up to 75% of the time typically required for specimen insertion and removal. Additionally, the AutoX750 can detach automatically at yield, enabling the test to run continuously and achieving ISO 527-2 compliance while maximizing productivity and accuracy
