Material Testing Facts
Material testing measures the characteristics and behaviour of substances such as metals ceramics, or plastics under a variety of conditions.
Material testing is often the last step in the manufacturing process.
Materials go through testing of ductility, hardness, impact, fracture toughness, and more.
