Medical bone plates, bone screws and fixation devices are used throughout the body for a variety of trauma conditions and disorders. We provide testing of these devices to ensure they function safely when they are needed most.
As an industry leader in medical device testing, we have experience testing a variety of products for mechanical strength and durability, including fatigue, bend, and torsion testing. Our labs also offer complementary services, including particulate testing, porous coating evaluation and in-house project management.Ìý
