We support research in biomechanics by providing test data for orthopedic surgical techniques.
At the Excelen Center for Bone & Joint Research in Minneapolis, Minnesota, most tests, including spinal research, are conducted using three MTS testing devices. One of these, the MTS Bionix MTS 810 load frame, is still in regular use more than 30 years after its development. These devices operate in conjunction with the MTS FlexTest digital control system and MultiPurpose TestWare software. Customers state that the advantages of MTS hardware and software not only include a reduction in evaluation time for spinal motion but also an increase in the overall reproducibility of tests. They also add that the continuous collaboration between biomechanical engineers, surgeons, and MTS technical staff is essential for the validation of devices and surgical methods at Excelen.

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.
