Mechanical Testing

Mechanical Testing
The accurate measurement and prediction of response to load is a vital component in the development of many products, especially for medical devices. We have the capability fully to characterise a wide range of materials in mechanical terms. For items of unusual configuration, whether biological or man-made, we can adapt the instruments to match the measurements of interest. The list below shows the most frequent subjects of our studies. Please contact us to discuss your special requirements.
