At Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing Netherlands, we’ve installed a Shimadzu AGS‑V universal testing system to perform penetration testing on pharmaceutical vials. As a result, we can ensure more consistent container integrity and support better product safety.

Why the AGS‑V makes a difference for vial testing:

  • Faster workflows: With a maximum return speed of 1,650 mm/min, the system shortens test cycles and therefore increases throughput.
  • PC‑free operation: You can configure and run tests directly on the built‑in touch panel. In addition, you can export results straight to a USB drive for a smoother, more efficient lab routine.
  • High accuracy & compliance: The system delivers precise force measurements that align with leading standards (e.g., ISO 7500‑1, ASTM E4). Consequently, you get trustworthy and repeatable data.
  • Versatile setup: The AGS‑V supports tensile, compression and bending methods. Moreover, it easily adapts to vial penetration test configurations.
    Overall, we’re excited to see how the AGS‑V further elevates quality control in pharmaceutical packaging.
