Mechanical Testing Services
Veryst Engineering offers a wide range of mechanical testing services, with a particular focus on plastics, polymers, and adhesives. We work with every client to understand what they need to learn from mechanical testing and we design customized experimental plans to meet those needs. For clients requiring test data to be used as finite element analysis (FEA) input, we provide a full suite of testing, material model calibration, and FEA services.
- Mechanical Testing Capabilities
We offer a full suite of mechanical testing services for plastics, polymers, and adhesives:
- Tension
- Compression
- Shear
- Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA)
- Fracture Toughness
- Fatigue
- Creep
- Stress Relaxation
- Planar Tension
- Bulk Modulus/Volumetric Compression
- Compression Set
- Dynamic Punch
- Friction
- High-Rate Tension
- High-Rate Compression
- Indentation
- Instrumented Ball Impact
- V-Notch Shear
- Lap Shear
- Custom Testing Solutions
We work with every client to develop a test plan that specifically targets their needs. That often means going beyond testing standards to develop custom load histories, specimen geometries, and/or test fixtures to replicate the mechanical and environmental conditions that a material sees in service.
- The Test Lab for Simulation Engineers
Our test lab was built by and for simulations engineers. We work with simulation engineers across all industries to collect the mechanical data that is required to calibrate and validate advanced material models for FEA. In addition to collecting mechanical data, we can deliver material models for:
- Abaqus
- ANSYS Mechanical
- LS-DYNA
- RADIOSS
- COMSOL Multiphysics
