Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about aerospace materials testing

ASTM E8 is the American standard for tensile testing of metallic materials, while ISO 6892-1 is the international equivalent. Both cover room temperature testing, but differ in specimen dimensions, strain rate requirements, and calculation methods.

Yes, Testometric systems include AS9100D/EN 9100 quality management exports and comprehensive audit traceability documentation to support aerospace quality management systems.

For aerospace applications, we recommend testing machines with force capacities ranging from 1kN to 1000kN depending on your specific testing requirements. Most aerospace materials testing falls within the 10kN to 250kN range.

Yes, Testometric machines are specifically designed for aerospace composite testing including ASTM D3039 tensile testing, ASTM D7264 flexural testing, and ASTM D7137 compression after impact testing.

Our aerospace systems support -70°C to +300°C environmental chamber testing plus high-temperature furnace options — split tube furnaces with grip extension rods for elevated-temperature tensile testing.
