The 55MT MicroTorsion is well suited for testing materials and parts that must withstand constant twisting and wrenching, such as medical devices (wire and bone screws, for instance) biomaterials, and electronic assemblies. The 55MT Series, in 220-Nm (2,000 in.-lb) and 22-Nm (200 in.-lb) designs, simulates many applications with torsional stresses.
