Our materials testing laboratory is equipped with chambers and environmental controls that allow us to test samples under vacuum, or in various inert or corrosive gas environments.
Overview
Environmental testing often requires our customers to replicate a range of “in service” environments and temperatures, as these factors can affect the failure of a sample. Our chambers are extremely versatile and allow us to carry out tests in a variety of conditions in controlled environments.
We also offer humidity-controlled testing*, with our latest environmental chambers designed to withstand pressures of up to 100bar*.
The flexibility of our chambers, combined with our specialist instrumentation and controls, mean that we can perform a number of different tests under controlled temperature and environmental conditions.
- Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue (TMF)
- Strain controlled testing (static and fatigue)
- Non-contact temperature control, using thermography and pyrometry
- Potential Drop (PD) Crack Propagation
- Three-point and four-point bend
- Fatigue (HCF, LCF, and customer specific profiles)
- High rate tensile and compression
Environmental Chambers
If you require environmental testing equipment within your own laboratory or facilities, we are able to design and manufacture bespoke environmental chambers that can be retrofitted to any make of test machine.
Pressure Testing*
In addition to environmental testing, we are also heavily involved in the development of first-in-class high pressure and low pressure testing applications.
