Laboratory Products 35 New Universal Testing Machines Offer Highest Performance Levels
Shimadzu has released its AGX-V series of Autograph universal testing machines in Europe. This product series consists of two table-top types of 10 and 50 KiloNewton (KN), and four floortypes from 50 to 600 KN. The Autograph AGX-V series offers the highest level of measurement capacities in the industry along with significantly improved operability and safety. Based on the wealth of 100 years of testing machines experience, the AGX series is the further evolution of the Autograph series. It offers exceptionally high core performance featuring the best sampling rate and strain rate control in the industry, newly introduced multi-joint connections for easy jig replacement, a new controller, and a self-diagnostic function that minimises downtime, for example. Shimadzu intends to use the excellent performance of this series to develop new markets in industries where additional growth is anticipated, such as the aircraft industry, the composite and functionally engineered material industries, and the transport equipment industry.
Since manufacturing its first testing machine in 1917, Shimadzu has continued to make contributions to a wide variety of R&D and quality control environments. Among its diverse line of testing machines, the Autograph series of precision universal testing machines, which can be used for tensile testing, compression testing, shear testing, and various other testing methods, is Shimadzu’s strongest brand.
To satisfy customer requirements better, the Autograph AGX-V series incorporates many new functions and various improvements. These outstanding features make the series ideally suited for testing materials that require large test forces, such as metals and carbon fibre reinforced plastics, and for testing regular materials.
The Autograph AGX-V series features high level performance thanks to a high-rigidity frame, as well as high speed sampling and high accuracy automatic control achieved by dual CPUs. A revolutionary control technology achieves both high control responsiveness in real-time and control stability. Safety measures protect both operator and machine. This includes safety covers for the front and the rear of the test space, an intelligent crosshead that prevents jig impacts, and self-diagnostic functions supporting maintenance intervals.
The new TrapeziumX-V software provides improvements to the user interface, increased data reliability and new functionality such as a USB camera function to record the test results, and the high-speed return function for reducing longer test cycles. The new software ensures high accuracy measurements of strengthened materials for the purpose of reducing weight of transportation equipment.

Next Generation Centrifuges and Incubators Showcased at Medica 2019
From 18 - 21 November 2019 the largest annual medical technology trade fair MEDICA took place in Düsseldorf. Hettich has been exhibiting its current product portfolio at MEDICA for more than 40 years now. This year, visitors enjoyed even more activity at the Hettich stand. In cooperation with integration partner Tecan, a fully automated centrifuge solution based on the ‘Tecan Fluent’ was shown. In addition to the classic centrifuges, new products such as the ‘HettInfo II’ documentation software for blood banks and the ‘HettCube’ incubators with touch display were also exhibited.

New Silicone Lid Covers Laboratory Vessels Smartly and Safely
Laboratory staff know the problems from their routine work. When working with solutions or substances in the laboratory, the question often arises how can they be safely covered? To prevent contamination during reactions, DWK Life Sciences has now developed a particularly safe lab container cover: The innovative DURAN®
silicone lid.
Due to its outstanding elasticity, the DURAN®
silicone lid can be used as a
cover for many different vessel diameters and shapes. The wide overlapping edge of the silicone lid closes fits over the vessel top. This is particularly advantageous during mixing, for example, as leakage or splashing of the reaction medium is avoided. The integrated pull straps are convenient and can be used with and without gloves.
As a result of the material’s properties, the DURAN® silicone lid is easy to clean,
is reusable and so represents an environmentally friendly alternative to single use sealing films. It can withstand high and low temperatures, is particularly tear- resistant, UV-resistant, water-repellent and durable. Silicone requires no plasticisers, unlike many other plastics. In addition, no fossil raw material is required for the production of silicone.
DURAN® silicone lids are eye-catching and bring plenty of fresh colours to the
laboratory. They are available in cyan, pink and green. With the help of the different colours and the additional labelling field on the flap, the vessels can be unambiguously. The lids are available in sizes small (S), medium (M) and large (L) and can be ordered individually or in sets from specialist laboratory distributors.
DWK Life Sciences has always been committed to the system concept of supporting laboratory staff in the best possible way. This is why DURAN®
closures and connection systems for almost every application - perfectly matched to the bottle thread and therefore particularly tight.
The DURAN® silicone caps system concept now extends to beakers and Erlenmeyer
conical flasks. More information online:
