Expertise

Development attending and fielding orientated testing basing on testing standards (DIN, ISO).

Testing at Room Temperature (RT)

  • Strength (compressive strength)
  • Testing under dynamic strain
  • Definition of fracture toughness by different methods
  • Vickers-, Knoop-, Brinell-Siverity


High Temperature Testing

  • Strength (compressive strength) in air and vacuum up to 1600°C
  • Vickers-Hardness  in vacuum up to 1500°C
  • Creep resistivity up to 1550°C in air and vacuum
  • Dynamic weariness and undercritic crack propagation (Air to 1550°C)
