Low Load Mechanical Testing
MTA specializes in tensile, compression, and torsion testing using Mark 10 Corporation Benchtop Tensile and Tortional Testers. The load cell on the tensile tester has a maximum capacity of 500 lb and the tortional tester has a maximum capacity of 50 in-lb.
We have tested a variety of small parts, including polymer fasteners (both molded and machined), fine wire weldments, mechanical crimps, springs, waive washers, and diametral compression testing.
