A full range of mechanical testing services is available, including
tension, compression, fatigue, fracture toughness, impact and stress,
and creep rupture. All are performed at temperatures from
-320°F to +2200°F. There are also complete in-house
facilities for lab-quality preparatory thermal treatment of specimens
and hardenability studies.
Computers and Automation for Greater Productivity,
Faster Turnaround
On-going investments in computer capabilities and automated equipment
help Dirats Laboratories do more, do it better and do it faster. Some
examples:
- Stress rupture test equipment is now autoloaded
whenever the test is ready, day or night.
- Digital tensile testing and software-controlled tests
for fracture toughness and crack growth, once directed manually, are
now performed in as little as one-quarter the time.
Sophisticated Stress, Creep Rupture and Fatigue Testing
Stress and creep rupture testing is done on frames which are
independently mounted and balanced to enhance alignment. Each furnace
has three independently controlled temperature zones, which are
continuously adjusted during testing. Computer controlled fatigue test
systems provide up to 110 kip in strain or load control modes at
elevated or cryogenic temperatures.
