Mecmesin provides solutions for tests on products or materials that require the measurement of their physical strength. Typically this involves applying and recording the force to pull apart, push together, twist or turn.

We divide these tests into the broad types of Compression, TensionTexture and Torque as listed below.

Some tests are best done with smaller table-top instruments, other tests require larger test frames. It all depends on the specimens to be tested, their size, shape, and the minimum/maximum forces required.

We'll help explain a little more about what is involved in each test type and walk you through our testing systems and instruments.

Speak to one of our experts if you need help in working out which test you might need and the most suitable equipment to do the job.
