Abstract: A computer system, method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium are provided. A request including unauthenticated data is created and securely transmitted to a remote device, metadata corresponding to the request is updated to indicate successful validation, a response file is validated, and a discrepancy is detected between the unauthenticated data and the authenticated data. Correction data is obtained, and a transaction based on the request and the correction data is executed. A second processor of the remote device verifies that an unauthorized user has not modified the authenticated data, generates a database table based on one or more fields of the authenticated data, extracts one or more predetermined data values from the authenticated data and the database table, and validates the unauthenticated data in the request based on comparing the one or more predetermined data values from the authenticated data and the database table to the unauthenticated data in the request.

Abstract: A testing machine frame is provided with facing extruded column covers extending between a base and a top housing, the columns continuous cross-sections providing a partially enclosed vertical zone with a vertical opening, the opening being closed above and below a crosshead with accordion blinds, and T-slots for carrying crosshead limit stops and accessories.

Abstract: A grip for a material testing load frame including a grip plate for engaging the end of an elongated sample having a longitudinal axis and a grip body having one end for connecting to the grip plate and another end for connecting to a loading component of the frame, a mechanism for adjusting the concentricity of the plate with respect to the body, and a mechanism for adjusting the angle of the plate with respect to the body, so that when the sample end is engaged by the plate, and the grip body is connected to the loading component, the longitudinal axis and the axis of the loading component can be aligned with respect to the concentricity and angle.
