testing and analysis
In-depth know-how, excellent equipment and high-tech testing – tested with certainty
Lightweight, multifunctional, resource-efficient - but the most important properties of components remain quality and safety. There can be no compromises, especially in industries such as automotive and aerospace. The same applies to the construction industry, plant engineering and mechanical engineering.
In our materials testing laboratory, our team checks the safety of all components produced in our company. Around 70 highly trained employees have state-of-the-art equipment at their disposal in the testing areas of the materials testing laboratory, which is indispensable for carrying out the numerous test procedures. The result: a contribution to efficient productivity and the safe mobility of people.
Diversity meets professionalism
Components such as engines are exposed to extreme conditions and must fulfill their intended purpose as high-security components – we make sure of that. Every day, our experts use their materials expertise to ensure that our customers can rely on the outstanding quality of our products at all times. Whether mass production, small series or individually manufactured single components – nothing leaves our production facilities untested. In order to fulfill this guarantee promise, we carry out a large number of test procedures in accordance with national and international test standards and customer specifications.
Our test procedures:
-
Non-destructive testing (NDT) and destructive testing (DDT)
-
Tensile and compression tests (partly also robot-assisted)
-
Metallography
-
Corrosion tests
-
Hardness test
-
Creep rupture tests and time trials
-
Optical measurements and ultrasonic testing
-
Fully automated chemical analyses
-
Dynamic component testing
-
Fracture mechanics tests
-
Fatigue tests
Iso-certifiedCertified quality
Nadcap, ISO 9001, ISO 9100 or IATF 16949 – these are just a few of the many examples of our numerous certifications. They underline the efficiency of our materials testing laboratory and are a sign of our expertise, our comprehensive technological capabilities and our claim: to guarantee maximum quality in order to meet our customers' requirements.
Innovative equipment
Our equipment is always up to date, versatile and reliable: From the scanning electron microscope and the dual-axis wheel test bench (ZWARP) to the development of AI-supported evaluation, we cover all safety-relevant tests to keep our quality standards high and inspire our customers.
technologically efficientHigh-perfomance microscopes
Our microscopes are in daily use for metallography. One of our microscopes is used specifically to build up expertise in the field of AI-supported microstructure analysis. The result: precise and more efficient analysis thanks to automated evaluation processes.
Servo-hydraulic testing system
Our servo-hydraulic testing machine is used for material and component testing under pulsating or alternating loads. The innovative system checks the performance and safety of components, products or materials efficiently and reliably.
Salt spray chamber for paint testing
The salt spray chamber enables a comprehensive service life simulation of components in a corrosive environment at different temperatures. It ensures compliance with applicable industry standards and increases our product quality. This enables us to offer our customers a long-lasting and first-class product experience.
