Lucideon's ambient and high temperature mechanical testing capabilities can be applied to industry or custom standards to enable material behavior to be assessed.  Safety is a critical factor within the aerospace industry which is why our testing simulates complex real-life loading scenarios.  Our years of expertise, partnered with state-of-the-art ISO 17025 and Nadcap compliant facilities, enables us test your materials under standard and product-specific loading configurations.

What makes us different?

• We have extensive knowledge and experience of testing metal structures and components within landing gears, aircraft structures, and wheels and braking systems
• We act as an extension of your internal capabilities, complementing your knowledge and solving any problems that may exist – saving you time, money and resources
• We are solution providers – giving you answers when the unexpected occurs.

We have a wide range of mechanical testing capabilities from sub-ambient (-130°C) to high temperature (1650°C) including:

• Bend testing
• Charpy impact
• Coating bond strength
• Compression
• Creep
• Flexural strength
• Gardner impact
• Hardness (Brinell, Knoop, Rockwell, Shore, Vickers)
• Shear strength
• Stress rupture
• Tensile strength
• Poisson's Ratio.
