Additive Manufacturing

Material analyses, strength testing, verification and tests, quality assurance

Additive manufacturing has potential in all sorts of sectors including aeronautics and aerospace, automotive and medical technology. Validation of the complete process chain of additive manufacturing is decisive in maintaining consistently high quality of structures and components that are subject to multiple complex static and dynamic loads once mounted and installed.
Our customers benefit from our decades of cross-sector experience in verification in our accredited test laboratories (DIN/ISO 9001/9100; DIN/ISO 17025). We are constantly developing our range of services through innovative verification methods and new test procedures.
