Within the mechanical testing group of AAC we can determine the following mechanical properties of metallic, polymeric, ceramic and composite materials using calibrated test equipment taking into account the terms and conditions of the corresponding standard (DIN, ASTM, EN, ISO,...). Beside standard mechanical tests, costumer defined component tests can be performed.
