Marine engineering is an area incorporating elements of mechanical, electrical, software and safety engineering for sailboats, tankers, submarines and other marine vessels. Stringent performance and safety-critical criteria must be met to operate and produce successful vessels.
You might be a supplier of components, sub-assemblies or replacement parts used on marine vessels. In all cases, your reputation depends on compliance with industry standards, internal specifications and customer expectations at every level.
Our customers from the marine industry use our test solutions for a wide range of quality-control testing applications including testing:
- pull-off strength of terminals for welded and crimped joints on marine cables
- insertion/withdrawal forces of electrical connectors
- tensile strength of riveted metal joints
- tensile strength of underwater lift bags
- tensile strength of fishing nets
- actuation force of switches on emergency beacons, tracking and monitoring devices
- torque to actuate rotary controls
- compression and tensile properties of springs
- load characteristics of small motors
- shear and tensile strength of fasteners
- peel strength of composite materials used in vessels
