We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Test Machine", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Burst test machine ideal for pouches and blisters from MET, which we summarised at the time by saying "A new, inexpensive, dedicated burst test machine, ideal for QA testing of medical pouches and blisters, offers simple use and affordability". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Proseal sandwich pack denester from Proseal UK: "Proseal has designed and launched a sandwich pack denester, developed to handle the growing number of cardboard skillet packs now being introduced".
 
In April 2007, we covered the news from Lloyd Instruments concerning its Single column materials testing - take a look at University buys materials testing machine which says: "The Particle Physics Group at Liverpool University has purchased an LRXPlus single column materials testing machine from Lloyd Instruments, which will characterise carbon-fibre support frames".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Bosch Rexroth, Linear slides simplify pressure test machine, as well as Horizontal testing machine for medical procedures from Zwick Roell, and Non contact video extensometer materials testing from Zwick Testing Machines.
