ISO 12189 is a specification of test methods for fatigue testing spinal implants that are used in arthrodesis operations. This standard is meant to provide static and dynamic mechanical properties of spinal implant designs that can be used to compare different designs. TestResources has advanced experience in the biomedical field. At TestResources, we strive to give you affordable and reliable products for all of your testing needs. By means of our expertise and product inventory, we guarantee to help find the testing solution that is right for you.
The testing machine shall be capable of producing the following loads: (0.6-2.0) kN with a tolerance of +- 60 N for the testing of the Lumbar and (0.05-0.15) kN with a tolerance of +- 4.5 N for testing of the Cervical. The machine shall be capable of operating at a frequency of 5 Hz +- 0.1 Hz and be capable of maintaining +- 1 % of the cycle time for phasing.
