These tests show whether a material or part is suitable for its intended application by measuring properties such as elasticity, tensile strength, elongation, reduction, hardness, fracture toughness, impact resistance, stress rupture and the fatigue limit.
It involves comprehensive range of mechanical testing services like Tensile test at room temp, Impact test (RT to Minus 196°), Hardness tests (Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers and Micro hardness). Our experience and expertise generates the answers to ensure customer satisfaction related to their products, design and evaluation.
For fast service MAS also maintains a good machine shop equipped to prepare specimen as per relevant specifications.
Test Services Offered:
It is a fundamental materials science test in which a sample is subjected to a controlled tension until failure.
The results from the test are commonly used to select a material for an application, for quality control, and to predict how a material will react under other types of forces. Properties that are directly measured via a tensile test are Yield Strength, Proof Stress, ultimate tensile strength, % Elongation and % Reduction in area.
Repute Indian Make (FIE) Universal Testing Machine (UTE -40). With capacity of Hydraulic loading up to 400KN. The machine is equipped with electronic panel, interface with computer to generate graphs. The loading rate can be set depending on the desired time to fracture.
The Charpy impact test, also known as the Charpy V-notch test, is a standardized high strain-rate test which determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. This absorbed energy is a measure of a given material's notch toughness and acts as a tool to study temperature-dependent ductile-brittle transition. Impact testing as its name implies involves subjecting of specimen to impulsive or suddenly applied load. Impact resistance is one of the most important properties for a part designer to consider, and without question, the most difficult to quantify. The impact resistance of a part is, in many applications, a critical measure of service life.
Charpy / Izod impact testing machine (IT-30, FIE Make), Mititoyo Shadow Graph with Template and angle gauge. MAS carry out both Charpy & Izod impact test with V/ U-notch. Test temperature ranges from Ambient to -196°C. Both direct and indirect verification / calibration are carried out for accurate and better service.
The property of a material that enables it to resist plastic deformation, usually by penetration is referred as hardness. However Hardness is a measure of the resistance of a material to surface indentation or abrasion.
There is no absolute scale for hardness therefore, to express hardness quantitatively; each type of test has its own scale of arbitrarily defined hardness. This is the most common, cheap and widely used in all the engineering fields including R&D.
Wide range of materials can be tested with available different hardness testers.
Bend testing determines materials ductility, bend strength, fracture strength and resistance to fracture. These characteristics can be used to determine whether a material will fail under pressure and are especially important in any construction process involving ductile materials loaded with bending forces.
MAS carry out Bend test on Plates, Pipes, Rod, Wires and Welded Test coupons.
It is the name given to the science and art of preparing & examining metals under the microscope. In this metal specimen are prepared using careful polishing and etching techniques resulting in a distinctive pattern, These pattern has been described by some as the finger prints of the metal. Each structure so revealed is unique and distinctive. While all micro structures are different, they are made up of similar components and are so classified.
