Applied Technical Services’ steel fatigue testing services provide insight into the causes of fatigue failure in steel materials. Our services help manufacturers ensure that products are safe and reliable for various applications. 

Why is Fatigue Testing Important?

Throughout their service life, metals are subjected to cyclic loading and repeated stress that initiates micro-cracks in the material. The material weakens as the crack expands, compromising the metal’s strength, which leads to further complications, including cosmetic flaws, structural issues, and unforeseen fatigue failure. Several factors contribute to metal fatigue, including:

  • Corrosion
  • Environmental Conditions
  • Manufacturing Defects
  • Poor Maintenance
  • Product Design Flaws
  • Vibrational Damage

Fatigue testing reveals valuable information about the materials’ quality and ability to perform specific tasks throughout their service life. Engineers also use the yielded data to pitch improvements to manufacturer’s regarding the product’s design.

Applied Technical Services’ Steel Fatigue Testing

Our steel fatigue testing services help clients improve product designs, manufacturing processes and reduce costs associated with fatigue failure. We subject steel materials to repeated stress that emulates real-world applications and initiate cracks that spread on the material’s surface, eventually causing fatigue failure. Our experts then observe the lifecycle of the material in its service conditions and evaluate the factors that may have contributed to the failure. Upon completion, our tests will allow our experts to develop suggestions that help counter fatigue failure in steel. Our testing services benefit several industries, including:

  • Aerospace
  • Automotive
  • Construction
  • Medical

Equipment Capabilitiesย 

  • Load Capacity of 55 Kip
  • Tests Temperatures up to 1000ยฐ
