The engineering staff at Innovative Test Solutions performs testing on numerous engineering components with strict adherence to quality performances in line with ASTM testing standards.
Some of the components tested in our laboratory are used in industries such as transportation, aerospace, and the medical industry.
What is Component Proof Load Testing?
A proof load test of a component or structure uses its maximum service load, then multiplies this amount by the proof factor, also known as the safety factor.
This test is used to evaluate devices and components used throughout a variety of industries to ensure the component can withstand its intended weight-bearing capabilities.
Objects can be tested independently as a component without incorporating other components like modules.
Importance of Component Testing
Component proof load testing should be conducted on new devices or equipment prior to being placed into service.
It can also be utilized to determine if a component that is currently being used is still performing as intended and withstanding weight or impact.
Should a component fail at any point during the testing procedure, our engineering team will be able to determine its rupture point.
Component Testing Services
ITS offers component testing as it is a crucial element in determining if a specimen is ready for its intended use.
Our facility can test components varying in size and shape.
Commercially available testing systems can be used, but in instances where components require the development of specialized testing equipment and fixtures, ITS is able to develop a customized testing solution.
