With our combination of expertise and dedication to rapid customer response, Product Evaluation Systems, Inc. and our mechanical testing laboratory is perfectly positioned to offer a range of mechanical testing services, including:
Determination of basic mechanical properties is a fundamental component of product quality assurance. Product Evaluation Systems, Inc. has facilities for machining specimens and performing all standard ASTM mechanical property tests. These include Tensile Tests, Izod Tests, and Charpy Impact Tests, bend tests and hardness measurements using Vickers, Rockwell or Brinell Methods. Fatigue, creep and stress rupture tests can also be performed. |
