Test & Calibration / Test & Calibration Details
When you require test specimens for metal testing, be sure you are getting the quality and turnaround you need. Test specimen machining at Laboratory Testing Inc. is a fast, extremely accurate production process, so let our machinists do the work.
The Machine Shop prepares all test specimens according to ASTM standards (including ASTM A370, ASTM E8, ASTM E23) and other industry specifications, such as AWS, ISO, EN, DIN, JIS and NACE. All specimen machining is NADCAP accredited.
The latest waterjet equipment for cutting and CNC centers for milling, turning and grinding, including low-stress grinding, allows us to prepare the highest quality test specimens quickly and economically, including:
LTI is a NIST Qualified Manufacturer for Charpy V-Notch Impact verification test specimens.
Traceability is maintained from receipt inspection through machining, certification and return shipping. All specimens receive a dimensional inspection after machining is complete to verify that measurements are accurate to the appropriate specification.
Machining of test specimens is a time-saving convenience for our customers that require a specimen for destructive testing. Our machining capabilities allow the complete order to be processed right at LTI, from receipt of the sample to preparation of the Certified Test Report. Laboratory Testing also provides test specimens to companies that perform their own in-house testing.
Contact us to order test specimens alone or to have LTI perform your testing too.
