Material testing is a handy way of describing the huge number of test and inspection processes that can be used to determine the properties of everything from metal to paper or plastics. It covers a huge swathe of different types of tests, all of which are designed to reveal important information about the properties of the material under examination.
Material testing is available for a huge number of different materials, from paper and packaging to inks and coatings. We also offer solutions for everything from films and plastics to wood, metals and composites.
Due to the massive number of materials that can be tested and the various properties to be evaluated, there are a huge number of different types of materials testing. Ranging from can inspection, to electronic equipment testing to hardness testing or impact testing, there are solutions to help you determine the fitness of a huge range of materials.
To know that a particular material can perform in a way that’s appropriate for its intended purpose, it’s essential that it has been fully tested to recognizable standards. That’s why the material testing equipment at Industrial Physics allows you to test to a wide range of internationally recognized testing standards, so you can be confident you’re meeting the demands of your industry.
Mechanical test accuracy can be affected by specimen preparation, grip alignment, strain measurement method, and machine calibration. Variations in sample geometry or loading rate can also impact results. Using standardized test procedures and properly calibrated equipment ensures consistent, repeatable mechanical performance data.
The correct test depends on your material type, expected use conditions, and regulatory requirements. Tensile tests measure strength and elongation, compression tests assess load‑bearing performance, and impact tests evaluate toughness. Matching the test method to your product’s real‑world environment ensures meaningful, actionable results.
