Testing to Standards or Special Customer Requests
For more than 35 years, experienced test engineers and materials testing technicians have been performing a wide range of tests quickly and reliably according to customer orders. This includes testing that meets factory standards, special customer requests, and standardized tests (for example, tensile tests, hardness tests, impact tests, etc.),
regardless of whether it is a single test or a complete test series. Customers also use our testing laboratories for testing prototypes and for outsourcing tests during capacity bottlenecks with their own materials testing machines and instruments. In our testing laboratory we only use modern testing technology. We regularly put our efficiency to the test by participating in round robin tests.
Watch Tests Live via Video Transmission
ZwickRoell testing laboratories are equipped with all of the latest multimedia options required for video conferencing and live demonstrations. This provides an opportunity, in particular for international customers or those who are at farther distances, to participate live in contract testing and preliminary tests on a regular basis.
Customers can ask questions and comment on the test sequence during the test that is transmitted in detail, and at the end can discuss the test result with the responsible team member. In contrast to receiving a simple test report, customers get a more sophisticated picture of how their specimens or components are being tested and when and how the material failure occurred.
