PYT-017 Medical Forceps Firmness Tester
The Peyotal PYT-017 Medical Forceps Firmness Tester features a specialized drive mechanism paired with dedicated tensile and torsional strength fixtures to guarantee strict axial concentricity and non-slip clamping stability. The intelligent control system allows operators to configure both single-pull firmness benchmarks and multi-cycle fatigue stress routines to assess long-term structural durability. Engineered with multiple safety mechanisms—including automated overload protection, mechanical travel limits, and power-off data protection—the machine reliably records firmness parameters within a 0 to 50 N load range (customizable up to 100 N) at regulated speeds of 80 to 120 mm/min. Encased in a compact 11 kg benchtop body, this automated unit delivers turnkey quality control for surgical instrument manufacturers, clinical packaging plants, third-party inspection agencies, and national health authorities across Southeast Asia, Central Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
product details
The Medical Forceps Firmness Tester (Model: PYT-017) is a precision, laboratory-grade mechanical integrity evaluation system engineered and manufactured by Peyotal. Purpose-built to measure the mechanical connection strength, structural firmness, and fatigue resistance of critical joints on medical tweezers and surgical forceps—including welding points, riveting zones, and tail connections—this automated apparatus ensures instruments maintain integrity without loosening, fracturing, or failing during surgical procedures.
Standards: Fully compliant with regulatory standards including YY/T 0294.1 and YY/T 0295.

Q1: What is the exact laboratory testing principle and workflow for measuring medical forceps firmness?
A: The test evaluates the structural connection strength of the instrument. The medical tweezers sample is mounted into specialized fixtures attached to the automated drive mechanism connected to the load measuring core. When initiated, the system applies controlled tensile or torsional stress across the target zone (such as the welded tail or riveted joint) at 80 to 120 mm/min. The equipment continuously logs force-displacement values and records the ultimate firmness threshold, yield point, or failure cycle.
Q2: How does the PYT-017 test both static firmness and fatigue durability?
A: In addition to standard destructive break/firmness testing, the controller allows operators to preset a specified number of cyclic stress applications. The drive system repeatedly cycles tension or deflection on the joint area to simulate months of clinical use, verifying whether repetitive sterilization and manual flexing cause structural loosening or micro-cracking at the weld seam.
Q3: What integrated safety features protect the sensor and test data during operation?
A: The PYT-017 includes intelligent overload protection that halts movement if force limits are breached, mechanical and electronic travel limits to prevent fixture collisions, and automatic data retention in the event of unexpected power loss. These features prevent equipment damage and preserve test logs for official quality documentation.
Q4: What facility utilities and hardware components are included in the delivery package?
A: The instrument is engineered for standalone benchtop operation on standard AC single-phase electrical power, requiring no external air compressors or fluid connections. The standard factory package includes the tester mainframe, a complete set of dedicated firmness and tensile clamping fixtures, a roll of thermal printing paper, the power supply cord, and a detailed user manual.
