Common Queries
Buying Questions
The details that help FITCO recommend the right model faster.
How do I know which model or capacity is right for my application?
FITCO shortlists equipment after understanding your sample material, test method, standard, expected range, throughput, accessories, software needs, and compliance requirements. This helps avoid buying a machine that is underspecified, overspecified, or missing the right fixtures.
What should I share for a faster quotation?
Share your sample type, test standard, measurement range, number of samples per day, required accessories, software or data integrity needs, delivery location, and whether installation or training is required.
Can FITCO support standards and compliance requirements?
Yes. FITCO supplies systems used for ASTM, ISO, EN, DIN, BS and regulated packaging or laboratory workflows, including solutions where 21 CFR Part 11 data integrity is required.
How does FITCO's Testometric UTM compare to Instron or Zwick Roell?
FITCO supplies Testometric UK universal testing machines for tensile, compression, flexure, peel, textile, medical, polymer, aerospace, and research workflows. Systems can support ASTM and ISO methods, 1000 Hz data acquisition, extensometers, fixtures, and 21 CFR Part 11 software options depending on the selected configuration.
Can I replace a Mocon OTR or WVTR analyzer with Industrial Physics instruments?
Industrial Physics and Systech Illinois OTR and WVTR analyzers are used for barrier packaging, films, pouches, food, pharmaceutical, and flexible packaging tests. FITCO helps compare the target standard, range, sample format, fixtures, calibration workflow, and data requirements before recommending a replacement.
Do you offer alternatives to Shimadzu or Goettfert rheometers?
FITCO supplies Dynisco and related polymer testing lines for melt flow, capillary rheology, IV, viscosity, and process-control workflows. The right alternative depends on the polymer, test method, throughput, temperature range, data integrity requirement, and service expectations.
Do you provide equipment similar to Brabender?
FITCO's portfolio covers several polymer processing and characterization workflows, including melt flow, rheology, sample preparation, presses, and material testing. FITCO reviews the exact Brabender application before suggesting the closest suitable equipment family.
How should I compare low-cost alternatives like GBPI, Labthink, or ExtraSolution?
FITCO recommends comparing low-cost systems on repeatability, usable sensitivity, calibration workflow, fixture quality, software integrity, service support, and long-term downtime risk rather than purchase price alone. This is especially important for regulated packaging, food, pharmaceutical, and export QC workflows.
