Test Principle
The Scalpel Blade Sharpness Tester secures the scalpel blade in a fixture and drives it through a suture material at a controlled speed. By measuring the cutting force at different points along the blade, the tester determines sharpness and consistency. Automatic calculations provide precise peak force values for objective sharpness evaluation.
