    Tests for elevator components

    • Testing of instantaneous elevator parachutes
    • Testing of progressive elevator chutes
    • Sheave hardening depth test
    • Bonding test on elevator brake shoes, linings and levers
    • Machining and preparation of test specimens

    Tests for experimental verification of components and finished products

    We develop tests to verify design requirements, validation of numerical calculations, etc.

    • Verification of sports components against UNE-EN-ISO standards (basketball goals, soccer and handball goals, spectator stands, etc.) with monitoring of displacements and/or deformations.
    • Verification of the resistance of components related to MOPYC- Public Works and Construction Machinery (formwork boards and bars, platforms for loading and unloading materials on site, handrails, staircases, accessible floors, cutting tables, etc.).
    • Verification of automotive components (springs, silent blocks, flexible hoses, seals, etc.)
    • Verification of storage and transport elements (racks, load handlers, containers, etc.)
