Cracking the Problem of Material Weakness with ADDISONIC
Our Services
High-speed Accelerated Fatigue Testing
Our bespoke Ultrasonic Fatigue Testing (UFT) machine operates at 20,000 Hz, allowing us to explore the durability of even the most complex and challenging materials up to the Very High Cycle Fatigue Regime (VHCF) and in a fraction of the time it takes with conventional methods. Whether you're developing a new product or need to ensure the reliability of an existing component, our accelerated fatigue testing services can help you save time and money.
​
Digital Image Correlation
Our Digital Image Correlation (DIC) contactless capability allows us to capture high-resolution images on the surface of a product and track the movement of speckles over time. This allows us to calculate full-field displacement and strain maps, providing us with a detailed understanding of how your product performs under load. Our 2D high-speed DIC is ideal for testing products that undergo rapid loading and deformation. Our 3D DIC system provides us with a three-dimensional view of the strain distribution, which is essential for understanding the behavior of complex products and systems.
Finite Element Analysis
We use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to assess the performance of mechanical systems, including the design of test specimens that are tuned to resonate at 20,000 Hz. We can also use FEA to assess the performance of your products using computational mechanics before prototyping, saving you time and money.
Realistic Test Conditions
Our UFT machine is capable of performing multiaxial fatigue testing. This means that we can test components under more realistic conditions than ever before, giving you more accurate and reliable results. Multiaxial fatigue testing is essential for developing and testing components that will be subjected to complex loading conditions in the real world. Our UFT machine can simulate the complex loading conditions that components experience in aircraft engines, turbines, and other demanding applications.
Research and Development
We conduct extensive research and development activities to find innovative solutions to material weakness in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and healthcare. Our data-driven approach enables us to predict the fatigue life of materials and products, and develop strategies to improve their performance.
