At Code A Weld, we offer industry-leading mechanical testing services that cater to a wide range of requirements, including raw materials, finished components, production samples, and qualification test samples. Our advanced laboratory follows industry-recognised methods to deliver accurate and reliable results, ensuring compliance with the highest standards.
The Importance of Mechanical Testing
Mechanical testing plays a vital role in the manufacturing and engineering industries. It ensures that products are safe, durable, and efficient, contributing to cost-effective designs and technological advancements. With our expert team and cutting-edge equipment, we provide bespoke mechanical testing services for both metallic and non-metallic materials, delivering independent, confidential, and precise results.
Full Range of Mechanical Testing Services
Our modern, fully equipped laboratory enables macroscopic and microscopic examinations, with all equipment calibrated annually by UKAS-accredited companies or through in-house methods. We conduct daily quality checks to maintain rigorous compliance with industry standards.
Our key mechanical testing services include:
Tensile Testing – Ensuring materials meet strength and ductility specifications to prevent production failures.
Fatigue Testing – Developing fatigue strength curves to evaluate material performance under cyclic stress.
Bend Testing – Assessing flexibility and durability to ensure materials meet safety standards.
Hardness & Impact Testing – Measuring resistance to deformation and sudden force impact.
Failure Investigations
When failures occur, understanding the cause is crucial. Our failure investigation services examine failed weldments, parent materials, and components using advanced macro and micro analysis. We also conduct chemical analysis to determine if a parent material or weld metal complies with production or service requirements.
We determine failure causes, such as weld fusion issues, and provide detailed reports with photographic evidence and comprehensive findings.
