Profile: IncoTest UK is a material testing service provider. We serve the aerospace, power generation, nuclear, chemical, automotive and manufacturing industries. We provide various kinds of testing processes. We perform creep strain tests using high temperature extensometry and high-precision transducers which are automatically logged and processed by the supervisory computer. We test a range of specimen types including smooth, smooth & notched, miniature, and flat designs. We evaluate the mechanical properties of materials using computer controlled tensile testing machines incorporating software that is capable of testing a wide range of forms, ranging from very fine wire and strip to precision machined test pieces. We also perform tests on fastener components, to full section bar and tube. We test materials using a range of metallographic and physical techniques including sample preparation, grain size determination, structural examination, inclusion assessments, micro hardness testing, thermal expansion testing, and corrosion testing. Using automatic cutting, grinding, and polishing equipment, a wide variety of materials are prepared by us for examination. This is carried out using a wide range of optical microscopes.
