Mechanical testing

Introduction to mechanical testing

Tecnolab del Lago Maggiore Srl is provided with equipment for mechanical testing on samples and metallic, plastic and electronic components in order to define their mechanical and elastic properties: a high precision solution for static and cyclic applications also at controlled temperature.

Test on samples

Tests on unified samples are performed in order to characterize the mechanical behaviour of a material and/or of a component subjected to tensile strenght, compression, cutting and

bending stiffness, searching the modulus of elasticity the yield strength and the ultimate strenght.

Equipment used for mechanical testing

Tecnolab has three testing machines operating at different ranges, depending on the mechanical

characteristics of the tested material, with the possibility of performing mechanical tests at controlled temperature in the range -60 ÷ +180 °C.

TENSILE AND COMPRESSION TESTING

• Maximum load: 600 kN
• Maximum test space: 1250 mm
• Test speed: 0.05 mm/min to 200 mm/min
• Temperature control
• Torsion tests
