Fatigue Testing Facilities
Exova's fatigue testing facilities are designed to service the needs of aerospace, industrial power generation, pipeline and automotive industries. State of the art servo-hydraulic test machines, software and fixtures means that Exova can perform fatigue testing of titanium and superalloys at elevated temperatures. New automated fatigue test control software packages for fatigue crack growth measurement by compliance and DC potential drop methods allow us to serve the needs of a wide range of industries.
Fracture Behaviour of High Alloy Steels and Non-Ferrous Alloys
Exova has in depth knowledge of the fracture behaviour of high alloy steels and non-ferrous alloys such as aluminium and titanium, routinely performing many of the standard ASTM fracture tests for the Aerospace industry. Utilising the latest in engineering software our engineers can readily provide data on crack growth resistance, defect tolerance and overall fitness for purpose of alloys used in even the most critical of applications.
