NORWOOD, MA-Instron, provider of testing equipment solutions designed to evaluate mechanical properties of materials and components, has added a new online technical resource.

The Testing Solutions section of Instron’s website(www.instron.com)has content to help answer materials testing questions, searchable by standard, material or industry.

“Our solutions are based on questions from our customers,” says Patricia Hartzell, Instron global marketing communications manager. “A great feature about this new section is we have the capability to tailor it to what our customers are asking. If a customer poses a new question, we can post the solution on our site quickly.”
