  • System for tensile testing films
    Patent number: 11662283
    Abstract: A method and system for analyzing a physical characteristic of a film sample are described herein. The system may include a material holder system configured to hold the film sample. The system may include a tensile testing system configured to stretch the film sample and determine a physical characteristic of the film sample. The system may include a movable system coupled to the material holder system and configured to move the held film sample to be analyzed or tested between stations. The movable system is configured to move the held film sample in the material holder system to the tensile testing system.

  • FILM CUTTING DEVICE HAVING A LINEAR ACTUATOR
    Publication number: 20210078193
    Abstract: A method for cutting a film of material and a cutting device for cutting the film of material are described herein. The cutting device includes a film support plate, and a pressure plate configured to move relative to the film support plate to hold the film of material on the film support plate. The device further includes one or more blades, and a linear actuator configured to move the one or more blades relative to the film support plate to cut the film of material held on the film support plate.
