Polymer materials, particularly in the form of plastics, have become an essential component of modern life, symbolizing both technological progress and civilizational advancement. Their widespread use across diverse sectors-from consumer goods and healthcare products to advanced technologies-continues to drive the development of materials with enhanced performance, sustainable sources, and carefully designed degradation profiles. A crucial aspect of optimizing these materials involves the long-term monitoring of specimens to observe changes over time. The frequency of monitoring must align with the kinetics of the degradation process; however, more frequent testing can reveal valuable insights into the mechanisms and various stages involved. Traditional methods of manual testing are not only labor-intensive but also lead to scheduling challenges, particularly when tests are required during inconvenient times such as nights or holidays. In this study, we present the development of an automated experimental setup using a collaborative robot, aimed at streamlining and improving the efficiency of polymer material testing.
