BFR200
Bend & Free Recovery Tester
AVID Innovation’s BFR200 Bend & Free Recovery
tester is a compact, fully integrated, user-friendly test
system for measuring transformation temperatures of
Nitinol-based components and devices. Testing is
according to the ASTM F2082 bend and free recovery
(BFR) testing standards
Featuring an integrated, adjustable temperature hot
plate and stirrer, the Nitinol sample is immersed in a
temperature-controlled bath. As the sample heats up,
position, temperature and time data is generated and
recorded. The resulting data can be plotted or exported
for storage or further calculations.
The versatile BFR200 can be utilized for process
development, device verification, QC process check,
device functionality testing, or many other applications.
