About Mechanical Testing

A wide number of tests are included in mechanical testing, which may be generally categorized into two types: tests that attempt to identify a material's mechanical characteristics independently of geometry. A material is being tested in order to determine its mechanical characteristics, such as its yield strength or hardness. The performance of provided materials is verified by mechanical testing.

Why is Mechanical Testing important?

Every design or manufacturing process requires mechanical testing. By characterizing material attributes or verifying finished goods, mechanical testing's main goal is to assure product safety.

Who should take the Mechanical Testing Exam?

  • Those with background knowledge of mechanics.
