Bcomtesting adds new equipment

March 12, 2010 By: NCTechNews Category: Testing

(Wake Forest, N.C.) Bcomtesting, physical testing service provider to the composites and plastics industries, announced an expansion of capabilities and services today. Bcomtesting has increased its testing capabilities with the addition of a 1,000-lb electromechancial frame and a 5,000-lb servo hydraulic fatigue rated Instron® 8872 table top frame.  These additions, combined with new fixtures and attachments, give Bcomtesting five testing frames (three electromechanical and two servo-hydraulics) while increasing the company’s overall static capacity up to 68,000 lbs. 

This equipment expansion will increase Bcomtesting’s overall capacity.  In turn, this capacity increase will make it possible for Bcomtesting to continue delivering leading turnaround times in the industries we serve. Additionally, Bcomtesting now provides even better faster turnaround for fatigue and standard testing to customers within the composites and other industries.

“Our company takes great pride in providing unmatched turnaround times for our customers,” explained Bcomtesting President Bruno Belanger.  “Even during periods when there is a high volume of work, it is imperative to maintain those industry-leading turnaround times.  The additon of this new equipment does achieve that while also adding some new capabilities.”

Based in Wake Forest, NC, Bcomtesting evaluates mechanical and physical properties of composites, and plastics for both fabricators and suppliers of these industries.  For more information on Bcomtesting’s capabilities, visit www.Bcomtesting.com, send an e-mail request to info@Bcomtesting.com or call +1.919.569.9922.

Bcomtesting offers a wide variety of testing capabilities with a specialization in composites and plastics. The company offers state-of-the-art physical and mechanical testing services at a fraction of the cost of most labs.  To provide greater value for customers, Bcomtesting evaluates twice as many specimens as required by ASTM standards for mechanical properties, providing better statistical distribution of the materials tested.  Bcomtesting’s cost per specimen is roughly 50% less than that of competing testing companies for mechanical properties and 18% less for physical properties determination.
