ZRS Testing Systems offers the most advanced and reliable solutions on the market for both destructive material testing, non-destructive testing (NDT) and hydraulic systems. Our products, in partnership with leading brands such as ZwickRoell, Emco-Test, Cygnus-Instruments, GTM GmbH and Star-Hydraulics, enable companies in all industry segments to ensure material quality for product control as well as for research and development. We combine state-of-the-art standardized test equipment with flexible customized systems to meet all technical needs.
-
Destructive Testing (DT) is an important method of testing the strength, durability and stress resistance of materials by subjecting them to extreme loads through tensile, compression and fatigue tests until they break or deform. This type of testing is used to ensure that materials and components meet the necessary safety requirements and performance standards before they are used in critical applications.
-
ZRS Testing Systems provides a broad portfolio of advanced materials testing systems from ZwickRoell, Emco-Test, Cygnus-Instruments and GTM GmbH. These leading manufacturers offer a comprehensive range of testing equipment, from universal materials testing machines to specialized systems and hardness testers.
Using our destructive testing systems, companies can accurately measure key properties such as tensile strength, ultimate strength, toughness, fatigue and much more. We deliver customized solutions to suit both small and large production volumes. The material testing machines are controlled via a PC with testXpert, a very user-friendly and intuitive software. You automatically receive your test reports and the results can be directly transferred to your LIMS system.
For measuring the hardness of materials, ZRS Testing Systems offers hardness testers from EMCO-TEST, one of the leading manufacturers in the industry. Our hardness testers enable accurate and reproducible Vickers, Rockwell, Brinell and Shore tests, ensuring that your components can be checked according to international standards and quality requirements.
We provide fully automatic, semi-automatic and manual hardness testers for laboratories and industrial production. In addition to sales, we also offer service, accredited calibration and support, ensuring that your instruments always work optimally.
