Strengths: Great instruments and easy to use software.
Needs to improve: Can be pricey, but for the most part, most top-tier material testers are roughly the same price.
I have use the instron machine for tensile and compression test on the bond joint and tensile strength on the material such as tubing, pouch peel test. It's great machine and easy to use for testing.
Strengths: Great machine for tensile and compression test on materials
