TEST LABORATORIES

GENERAL NOTES CONCERNING TEST LABORATORIES

We carry out strategic and dynamic investigations on original components and models on your behalf under strict compliance with standardised testing methods and technical regulations in a reliable and confidential way in our material and component laboratories in order to determine the functional safety, design strength and durability with regard to determining and increasing the quality of products. The testing laboratories are accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17015:2018.

We conduct mechanical-technological tests in the material testing area. This encompasses the following individual services:

MATERIALS LABORATORY

  • Testing of hardness, impact resistance and tensile, compressive and bending strength of raw materials, semi-finished products, finished components and welded joints.
  • Analysis and determination of the elementary composition of materials
  • The implementation of metallographic investigations and spectral analysis, scanning electron microscopy and EDX analyses
  • Production of precision microsections in order to determine the quality and condition of a material
  • Provision of fractography, roughness measurements and carrying out magnetic crack testing
  • Production of expert opinions and the evaluation of damage cases

COMPONENT LABORATORY

WTZ carries out fatigue strength tests in the form of tensile, compression, bending, single level and multi-level tests in the component laboratory. The company evaluates vibration tests using vibration and shock resistance testing and carries out simulations, wear tests and quality controls to identify weaknesses.

EQUIPMENT

  • High-frequency pulsator with a temperature chamber
  • Shaker with a temperature chamber

ENVIRONMENTAL LABORATORY

Environmental protection, product safety and sustainable quality assurance are some of the most urgent issues that we address in our work. We can provide you with competence and reliability from our engineers. We implement a wide variety of analytical methods and constantly develop new methods for the quick, precise and reliable measurement of engine values and injection and combustion processes.

WE ...

  • examine polluting emissions from combustion engines for mobile machinery
  • prepare analyses and studies
  • conduct tests on exhaust after-treatment plants
  • tune engines in order to reduce emissions
  • use spectral analyses of combustion flames, flame temperature measurements and soot concentration measurements to examine combustion
  • carry out sound and vibration analyses such as noise source localisation, noise reduction, structural movements and rotational vibrations on power generators with reciprocating internal combustion engines
