In the field of material testing, there are thousands of standards, each of which has been developed for a particular material type, testing method, or application. These standards are more than just guidelines—they establish strict technical requirements that must be […]
Thousands of road accidents occur each day on a global scale. Some of them are inconsequential, while others result in severe vehicle damage or personal injury. In all these situations, the exterior parts of a vehicle are the first to […]
Safety advice is found everywhere—from using electronics to taking the elevator, it’s part of daily routines. When people think of safety measures, the image of a hard hat often appears first. However, not every hard object worn on the head […]
Every laboratory and facility in the material testing industry is perpetually trying to maintain a competitive edge. Each laboratory seeks to surpass its competitors in terms of operational errors, improved client reporting, higher testing accuracy, or faster turnaround times. But […]
Have you noticed that your material testing equipment has started giving inconsistent or unreliable results? Or perhaps you need to meet international testing standards and obtain official certification in order to work with larger clients or pass an upcoming audit? […]
Here at NextGen Material Testing, we offer a comprehensive range of universal testing machines designed to match the needs of modern laboratories and production facilities. It is the purpose of this article to introduce our compact bench-top solution – the […]
Precise strain and displacement measurement is fundamental to mechanical and material testing. Whether measuring metal tensile strength or analyzing crack propagation in polymers, the accuracy of extensometers and COD (Crack Opening Displacement) gages plays a critical role in obtaining valid […]
Testing and calibration require accuracy and reliability. Laboratories must follow strict standards to demonstrate that they are capable of producing valid results. One of the most important standards in this field is ISO/IEC 17025. This international standard defines the requirements […]
Accurate force measurement is the foundation of reliable material testing. Whether testing metal, plastic, or composite samples, every result depends on the testing machine calibration. Two major standards set the global benchmark for verifying force accuracy: ISO 7500-1 and ASTM […]
Materials and components do not fail under perfectly infusing conditions—they fail when struck, dropped, or exposed to unpredictable forces. This is why understanding how a material behaves under sudden impact is one of the most important aspects of product development […]
