Materials and Components Testing Laboratory

ZwickRoell's testing technology and our materials testing technicians' expertise enables us to guarantee reliable test results for your tests. Stand-out features of tests performed at ZwickRoell laboratories include

• Accuracy
• Repeatability
• Comparability
• Traceability

Our rapid response times enable us to provide you with fast test results. By prior arrangement, we can also provide express testing.

• Our in-house laboratories have modern machinery and are equipped with the latest testing technology.
• As a manufacturer of materials testing machines and instruments, we have a complete materials testing portfolio at our disposal .
• Our large inventory of various adapters and fixtures means we can find the right solution for your testing.
• By prior arrangement, we develop and produce the necessary adaptors and fixtures for you.
• Numerous accessories: Our portfolio includes testing with optical extensometers (videoXtens, laserXtens), testing in temperature chambers, and testing with strain gage applications.

• We have access to a large archive of standards and look forward to supporting you in finding solutions for your testing requirements.
• Implementing your specific standards is easy for us. Our numerous experts we offer expertise and years of experience.

Capacity bottlenecks can be challenging for you and your company. These capacity bottlenecks can be caused by various factors:

• Lack of staff (skills shortage, staff shortage due to vacations and illness)
• Your testing machine is not operational (due to defects)
• You cannot meet your high testing volumes (due to a large contract)
• You must bridge the time until the delivery of a new testing system

To quickly and flexibly rectify such capacity bottlenecks or prevent them early on, we are prepared to handle your testing until your situation has improved.

The best trained materials testing technicians and test engineers are standing by in our testing laboratories and are ready to perform your materials and components testing according to your requirements or standards. 

Do you have low or irregular testing volumes or does purchasing a testing machine not make sense for your needs? In such cases, we can handle testing for you.

• By outsourcing your testing to ZwickRoell, your costs are predictable.
• The more tests you have performed at our laboratories the lower your unit cost.

• Has an in-house testing comparison produced different test results?
• Do your laboratories at site A and site B, despite seemingly similar approaches, produce varying measured values?
• Or do your customers' or suppliers' test results deviate from your test results?

Then use our laboratories' expertise and neutrality for your materials and components testing. We support you as a neutral third party and deliver reliable, independent test results.

Together we can look at the various tests differences and influential factors, so that you can take measures to ensure uniform testing extending across locations. Our experts look forward to supporting you in standardizing your general requirements and test sequences.

• Our highly qualified test engineers and materials testing technicians have years of experience and solid expertise
• Industry and application-specific expertise through numerous diverse tests
• As the manufacturer of materials testing machines with expert knowledge, we rely on all of our testing machines' functions and capabilities.
• Our developers can and is factored into complex testing requirements
• Our laboratory staff's continuous internal and external training ensures a consistent level of knowledge
• Additionally, our laboratory has access to specialists within the ZwickRoell Group from diverse areas and applications

By prior arrangement, we can also provide you with photo documentation and additional test reports or testing evaluations.

• The test reports describe the condition of the specimen, the test arrangement, possible problems and testing characteristics, as well as concrete solutions.
• Special evaluations are also possible and can be implemented in-house by our specialists through software add-ons and modifications.
• If needed, you also receive the tXp ZSE file to read the software on your ZwickRoell materials testing machine.

All of our laboratories' materials testing machines and instruments are calibrated regularly, the majority of which according to the German National Accreditation Body (DAkkS). If needed, we can send you the calibration reports.
