²ÝÁñÉçÇø offers a full suite of mechanical testing services for metallic and nonmetallic materials, as well as components and specialty products. Whether it's ensuring compliance with a specific standard or a customized testing program, our experts provide accurate, reliable, and fast results tailored to your project requirements.
What is Mechanical Testing and why does it Matter?
Mechanical testing, or destructive testing, is vital in R&D, ensuring materials meet safety standards for their intended use. Engineers rely on it to evaluate key properties like strength, toughness, ductility, and stiffness. ²ÝÁñÉçÇø offers a wide range of tests, from abrasion resistance to specialized ones like Charpy impact, creep, and fatigue testing.
Our experts apply controlled forces, mimicking real-world conditions—tension, compression, bending, shear—to guarantee materials are safe, reliable, and perform optimally. Choose ²ÝÁñÉçÇø for precise assessments that enhance the quality and reliability of your materials.
