Bluehill Universal is designed to smoothly conduct all material tests with touch operation. With a focus on usability, it features an innovative vertical screen layout that makes the testing workspace displayed on the control panel very user-friendly. This large screen is a groundbreaking space equipped with an integrated controller. Intuitive operation is possible, allowing users to quickly start testing without being affected by individual differences in testing experience or spending time on operational training. 【QuickTest】 If immediate test results are needed, simply input basic parameters from the QuickTest screen to start the test right away. 【Standard Testing Methods】 Bluehill Universal comes with a library of pre-set testing methods based on the most commonly used testing standards such as ASTM, ISO, and EN. 【Guided Testing】 It guides you through the entire testing process with step-by-step instructions, allowing for error-free execution when repeating tests. Additionally, test instructions can be customized with unique text and images.

**Operator Protection Feature** The 6800 series incorporates a patent-pending operator protection feature from Instron. This smart function ensures the safety of both the equipment and the operator by controlling the system status from setup to test completion. **Test Status Display via Indicators** The 6800 series continuously displays the system status. Users can easily understand when the system is in a safe setup mode, and they are notified to stay away from the test area when the safety limits are removed. **Smart Close Air Kit** The risk of finger pinching accidents due to pneumatic grips is mitigated by reducing the actuation pressure of the grip and limiting the operating speed during specimen attachment.

■Latest Model Handset 【Customizable Soft Keys】 With two changeable soft key buttons, operators can assign various operations to the buttons. The soft keys can be saved per method, allowing customization for each test. 【Virtual Interlock】 This is a patent-pending testing machine technology from Instron that includes a mechanism to prevent unintended movements of the testing machine's crosshead. 【Variable Speed Jog Button】 In setup mode, the system is configured to move the crosshead at a safe speed suitable for operators working in the test space. 【Precise Positioning】 The precision positioning jog wheel with tactile feedback allows for accurate movement of the crosshead in increments of 4μm when performing tests that require minute adjustments. 【Specimen Protection】 Specimen protection automatically fine-tunes the crosshead to prevent unnecessary forces from being applied to the specimen, safeguarding valuable specimens from damage.
-
■Durability 【Collision Mitigation】 When a load is detected during return or while the jog button is activated, the crosshead can be stopped, preventing damage to the device and breaking of delicate test specimens. 【Load Cell Overload Prevention】 The 6800 series automatically stops when the load cell reaches its maximum capacity, preventing damage to the load cell, system, and fixtures. 【2580 Series Load Cell】 The 2580 series load cell is specially designed for the 6800 testing machine, providing excellent performance with a measurement accuracy of ±0.5% of the reading for loads up to 1/1000 of the load capacity. The load cells designed and manufactured by Instron can withstand loads up to 150% of the load capacity without damage and up to 300% without mechanical failure. The automatic transducer recognition feature and electrical calibration make it user-friendly.

Company information
Instron was founded in 1946 by Harold Hindman and George Bahl, who were conducting joint research at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) at the time. They developed the world's first electromechanical (screw-type) universal testing machine. The name "Instron" is derived from "instrument" and "electronics." Instron's product range offers diversity that can cater to almost all global markets and industries, and since its establishment, over 70 years of testing technology and manufacturing experience have been built, with more than 50,000 systems operating worldwide. In 1965, Instron Japan was established to support customers in Japan. Currently, it has major bases in the United States, Europe, and Asia, providing sales and services in 40 languages through agents in 160 countries around the world.
