Testing and R&D for ensuring the safety and durability of various large structures is becoming more and more important as civil engineering and construction projects are becoming larger in scale and traffic is becoming faster. Shimadzu provides various testing systems in response to these needs.
f. Impact Testing
In recent years, plastic composite materials have come to be used as various structural strengthening parts, for example, in automobiles and aircraft. Shimadzu provides high-speed puncture and tensile testing machines.
15. Non-Destructive Testing
Non-destructive inspection instruments utilize X-rays to penetrate materials. They include both fluoroscopy instruments and CT instruments, which are capable of creating tomographical images and performing 3-D observation. The images obtainable from minute of X-rays focus delivery high magnification. These instruments are essentially microscopes, which enable us to peer inside materials without destroying them.
