Mechanical Testing on aerostructures and subassemblies (metallic and/or composite materials) with application of maximum break loads or dynamic fatigue operational loads. Design and execution of tests for R&D purposes, design verification, simulation validation as well as root cause failure analyses.
Static testing to maximum break loads
- Maximum compression loads: 450 Ton.
- Maximum traction load: 250 Ton.
Dynamic, fatigue and durability testing
- Up to 85 independent actuation channels.
- Aerospace-class control systems (force and/or displacement).
