I contribute to the realization of a practical educational environment at the VCU School of Biomedical Engineering.
At the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Biomedical Engineering Research Institute, there are currently eight MTS electromechanical testing systems with a load capacity of 10 kN in operation, utilizing the MTS TestWorks application software, which features a flexible and intuitive user interface for designing and conducting tests. Additionally, each testing device is equipped with MTS wedge mechanism grips, axial extensometers, and custom-designed clamps and test frames. Through practical training in the laboratory, students can design and conduct tests for various loading sequences, such as tension/compression and bending, on a range of tissues and engineering materials, becoming familiar with the functions of the software, load frames, and accessories. According to customers, the MTS testing equipment plays a crucial role in achieving the Biomedical Engineering Research Institute's original goal of creating a practical and meaningful learning environment.

Company information
MTS Japan, Inc. is the Japanese subsidiary of the American engineering company MTS Systems Corporation, which specializes in various testing equipment. For over 40 years, we have provided engineering consulting services to users in Japan, delivering earthquake simulation systems, automotive durability testing systems, aircraft fatigue testing equipment, and various material testing devices to public institutions, universities, and private companies in our country. All of these systems play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of these systems and are indispensable when it comes to "manufacturing" products. MTS Japan, Inc. was established in June 1972 with a 50% investment from MTS Systems Corporation. In May 1975, it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, and in 1981, we established the Nagoya branch (now the West Japan branch) to strengthen our sales and support structure, which continues to this day. Through collaboration with MTS, we achieve design optimization, productivity improvement, and a reduction in the time to market for our customers' products.
