Failure in service is not an option for the aerospace industry. That’s why 51³Ô¹ÏÍøprovides a wide range of aerospace mechanical testing services to make certain your products and materials are safe, quality, compliant, and fit-for-purpose.
Aerospace mechanical testing/destructive testing
Mechanical testing, also known as destructive testing, ensures your materials and products meet the critical properties required for their end-use.
These test methods include, but are not limited to:
- tensile strength testing of metal, polymer, rubber and composites
- elongation testing
- compression testing
- shear testing
- fracture toughness testing
- abrasion and wear testing
- bend testing
- hardness testing (Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers, Micro-hardness)
- Charpy impact testing
- flexural strength testing
