Welcome to our new Instron Community Blog hosted by Instron. It is a compilation of the freshest, brightest, most-talented minds that Instron has to offer. The world of materials science is so vast and encompasses the broadest range of industries, materials, and challenges that no one person can possibly possess all the knowledge required to be the resident expert – or master of materials science. It takes a small army behind the scenes collaborating and sharing technical know-how, experiences, and ideas to present the most accurate, relevant, and timely information to you – our readers.

We invite you to tell us who you are, share your stories and talk about your experiences. Join the Instron Community.

Shanghai Composites Seminar


On October 26, 2011, Instron hosted a seminar on Composites at the Shanghai City Hotel in Shanghai, China. Approximately 35 guests from industry and academia attended the seminar, which featured talks on “Trends in Composites Testing”, “Typical Applications and New Grips and Fixtures” and “Bluehill Software Features for Composites Applications” by Ian McEnteggart.

Mr. Shen Wenrong, from Instron China's Engineered Solutions Group, presented “Strain Testing Solutions for Composites”, covering contacting and non-contacting extensometry.

Dr Zhou Zhulin, a special guest from the Shanghai Fiberglass Institute, also delivered a speech in the seminar.

This represents one of the many ways that Instron is reaching out to the composites industry - making sure that we stay abreast of the latest technologies and innovations for testing and more!
