Mecmesin has more than 35 years experience in helping automotive OEMs and their component suppliers with their force and torque testing requirements. Our test systems are used to perform a wide range of tests on all types of interior and exterior vehicle materials and components including tensile, compression, peel/adhesion, wire terminal strength and torque tests.
Around the world many automotive OEMS and tier one and two suppliers already use Mecmesin test equipment to:
| Adhesives strength; structural use and interiors | Seating compression tests |
| Airbag connector pull strength (pull-test weld to break) | Soldered flexi-circuits tensile test (component pull-off) |
| Brake pad attachment shear strength | Spring testing |
| Car bumper deformation testing | Stall torque of motorcycle engines |
| Car window sliding force (glass/rubber friction test) | Steering rack torque measurement |
| Compression testing the membrane buttons of a key fob | Tensile tests on vehicle interiors e.g. fabrics and interior trims |
| Connector pull test on fuel-injection components | Test the force to open the door |
| Dashboard controls testing (switch, stalk, and membrane, push and twist effort) | Vehicle door opening/closing effort |
| Determining the break-back force of door mirrors | Window and sunroof winder torque |
| Interior cord, plastic toggle fasteners and webbing tie-down bonds | Windscreen flexure and strength |
| Puncture, tear and peel of HGV curtains, straps and restraints | Wing mirror fold test |
| Seat belt release effort under tension | Wiring harness terminal testing (crimp strength) |
| Seat operating efforts (headrest, recliner, etc) |
