Our casting capabilities in almost any type of metal alloy and has a 1,200kg titanium vacuum melting capability. TS2 is casting complex components supplied into the aerospace, defence, chemical nuclear and marine markets.
Testing equipment is essential for evaluating the mechanical properties of materials used in various industries. Traction testing equipment measures the force required to break a material. This enables the calculation of strength, ductility and tensile characteristics of the material.
In-plane shear (ILSS) tests is the measurement of the interlaminar shear strength of composite materials. This type of testing is very important in evaluating the quality of composite materials in aerospace, automotive and other industries.
Stress analysis testing can also be carried out using sophisticated equipment such as strain gauges and finite element analysis software to model and predict the behaviour of materials under different loading conditions. High stress areas within a material can be identified; helping to facilitate improvements in design, manufacturing, and maintenance of structures.
In summary, traction, ILSS and stress analysis services through testing equipment are important tools for materials and product evaluation. They help ensure that products are safe, reliable and fit for their intended purpose, while also serving as a driver for increasing innovation and efficiency in various industries.
