We provide testing services by using our state-of-the-art testing capabilities coupled with experienced professionals in the field.
We can apply a wide range of thermo-mechanical and structural testing standards and requirements with its diverse test set-up and high-end equipment.
We can make high quality, accredited measurements using well-known equipment in the field for their precision and accuracy.
We have the following capabilities:
-
Dynamic and static testing equipment which are recognized for their correctness and performance.
-
Quasi-static and dynamic tests between 0.2 N and 250 kN range can be performed with high accuracy and precision using a variety of extensometers and strain gauges.
-
The tests can be performed at room temperatures and, if desired, at temperatures between -150 ° C and +500 ° C.
-
Non-contact measurement technologies such as high-resolution Digital Image Correlation (DIC), thermography, acoustic emission and Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) based sensors.
-
High-speed data acquisition, processing and recording systems are utilized during the characterization of composite, plastic and metallic material properties.
-
Drop Tower and Pendulum Impact devices are utilized to perform weight drop or acceleration tests, impact tests on notched or non-notched materials.
-
Tests for the ageing and moisture retention capabilities of the materials can be carried out in a highly efficient environment at temperatures between -72 oC and +180 oC, reaching humidity levels between 10% and 98% through the conditioning chamber.
