Researching the fatigue resistance of restorative materials and structures is a mainstay of dental research, but the equipment available has traditionally been cumbersome or expensive. Mechanical testing machines as subject to wear, hydraulically-driven instruments are expensive and devices that use static weights are inaccurate. Consistent loading is essential for a phenomenon already plagued by uncertainty, the way fatigue is. These challenges were addressed in Proto-tech's precision-solenoid driven platform, which provides four stations of loading in an computer-controlled device....
