Mechanical testing.

How much can a component be loaded without permanently deforming or breaking? We clarify these and many other questions with the help of mechanical tests.
Our test laboratory carries out mechanical test procedures on products, components and workpieces in order to determine the mechanical parameters and sizes of the material used. Among other things, strength, deformation and fracture behavior, hardness and wear resistance are examined. Many areas of technology require the results of mechanical tests for the purpose of designing and quality assurance of components.

With a wide range of mechanical material tests, we help you to quickly and reliably answer questions about quality, safety and economic efficiency and also to solve complex tasks. This includes both the implementation of standard tests and the development of non-standardized test methods for solving special problems in direct customer contact.
