At Servosis, we have all the necessary materials to carry out a optimal compression test<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Another of the tests you will need for successful quality control is the Compression test<\/a><\/strong>. This test determines the resistance of a material to compressive stress or load. Although it is less used than, for example, the tensile test<\/a><\/strong>This practice is commonly used in concrete or cement and even to evaluate the durability of finished parts.<\/p>\n

The process consists of introducing a cylindrical specimen of the material to be tested into special presses. Once there, the cylinder receives a higher pressure following the pre-established regime until it breaks, and all the necessary data are recorded on the press gauges. During the process, the stress curve<\/a>from which we obtain the three main characteristic points:<\/p>\n
