Our laboratory proposes:

  • Cutting out of templates from equipment and pipelines without breakdown of structure integrity and strength of articles. Control of mechanical properties and structure of metal;
  • Control of stressed-deformed state of equipment and pipelines;
  • Performing of tensile/compressive tests;
  • Testing of foils;
  • Measurement with the use of extensometer of longitudinal and transverse deformation of specimen to failure with determining of Poisson coefficient in the range from -100oC to 1000oC;
  • Testing for 3 and 4 points bends;
  • Instrumental testing for impact bend (testing of specimens with different cuts (U,V) according to State Standard, ASTM).
