Materials Testing for Aerospace Applications

Testing for the aerospace industry demands high precision equipment combined with excellent laboratory practices and robust traceability. Instron systems are designed to provide reliable, repeatable measurements using high-quality equipment, with a wide range of grips and fixtures that allow precision adjustment of alignment to facilitate easier compliance with testing standards and accreditation bodies. Instron's calibration laboratory can also provide on-site verification and calibration for both transducer measurements and mechanical alignment that are internationally accredited by NVLAP and are directly traceable to national reference standards at NIST and NPL.

Instron has provided materials testing equipment to the aerospace sector for more than 75 years. As such, we recognize the origins of our customers’ demands for repeatability, reproducibility in round-robin testing, and overall audit-worthiness of their testing processes. Instron continues to engage with standardization and research meetings in order to stay in touch with evolving requirements and to offer the best support to the community.
