EWI Testing Services:Mechanical Testing 2EWI Testing Services provides machining and testing services on an array of materials includingmetals, plastics, and composites. EWI’s Mechanical Testing capabilities include force andstrain controlled fatigue, fatigue crack growth rate, crack tip opening displacement (CTOD),R-curve fracture toughness, and prototype testing. We have extensive experience withtesting a variety of materials and geometries (C(T), SENB, and SENT) under a wide array ofenvironmental conditions (sea water, drilling fluid, corrosion inhibitor, cathodic protection).EWI’s precision equipment gives us the ability to test CTOD samples ranging in crosssection from 0.25” x 0.5” up to 5” x 5”. Our notch placement procedures allow us to place anotch in fracture toughness specimens within 0.004 inch (0.1 mm) of the target location. Thisunique combination of equipment and expertise allows EWI to evaluate fracture toughnessproperties of very specific microstructures or material locations.Standard Fatigue - Up to 220,000 PoundsReferenceStandardDescriptionRate**Fatigue Test (Force-Controlled)ASTM E466Constant or variable amplitude, force-controlled axial fatigue testof standard geometry samples.
