Fatigue testing: mechanical endurance
The 6NAPSE Group supports manufacturers in optimizing the lifespan of their products, their mechanical durability and their behavior in terms of maneuvering effort.
Our mechanical durability tests
Mechanical tests
- Static, dynamic stiffness
- Tensile / compression / bending / deformation tests
- Maneuvering forces
- Shock and impact tests
Maneuvering endurance tests
- Reproduction of movements necessary to carry out the complete cycle (door opening / closing, for example)
- Cycling tests on a single part or complete system with the possibility of combining several movements (e.g. door, tailgate, window opening/closing cycle, etc.)
Fatigue tests
- Durability tests: resistance to repetitive tests
- Low frequency vibration test
- Multi-physics test (mechanical, thermal, electrical)
- Mechanical fatigue test by application of alternating stresses using cylinders
Any part/system subject to repeated mechanical stress.
From the single part to the complete system.
