Starrett Innovation.
Helping You Make Your Products Better.
Our new Starrett force measurement systems exemplify the craftsmanship and quality synonymous with all Starrett products. Since 1880, Starrett has helped leading global manufacturers make better products through innovation, advanced measurement technologies and a commitment to customer satisfaction.
Starrett force measurement systems are optimized for demanding, high-volume manufacturing environments. Our systems are designed to help you improve your testing while increasing productivity, production yields and product quality.
The Better Solution for Force Measurement.
The Starrett FMS Series is a family of new and innovative force measurement systems. Available in four load capacities, these universal testing systems are ideal for general purpose force testing, demanding high-volume production testing, and exacting quality control testing.
Starrett force measurement systems are your solution for tensile, compression, flexural, shear, coefficient of friction, and cyclic testing. You can easily and efficiently perform push/pull testing, break testing, constant hold testing or tests that muse meet international testing standards from ASTM, ISO, BS, DIN and others.
The FMS Series consist of a single-column electro-mechanical testing frame, combined with our L2 Series digital controller and a Starrett load cell sensor.

Precision…
For Medical Device Manufacturers.
Advances in medical devices increase life expectancy and improved the way we live and recreate. Medical device researchers are continually evaluating products and materials.
Medical adhesives, syringes, artificial skin, foam orthotics, stents, medical gloves and other products require critical and exacting measurements prior to commercialization.
Starrett FMS Series can be used to test medical devices for their form, fit and function. Because of their ease of use and ability to create sophisticated test methods using our L2 Series software, FMS Series systems are ideal for medical device manufacturers. The ability to measure, analyze and collect data for exporting to quality control applications or to a network, make the FMS Series a cost-effective solution for medical device manufacturers around the world.
