Comprehensive software library for composites testing

With almost 20,000 successful installations worldwide, testXpert II is the leading software for static testing applications. testXpert II covers all ranges of application, including in particular tests on fiber composites, following significant expansion of Zwick’s range of Standard Test Programs.

Zwick is the specialist for tests on fiber composites. As well as producing suitable testing machines and fixtures, the company can now supply over 40 Standard Test Programs for composites. Test Programs are available for all established types of test (tensile, compression, flexure, shear etc.) and all standards (ISO, EN, ASTM, Airbus AITM, Boeing BSS).

Available standard test programs (selection):

• Tensile test (ISO 527-4, ISO 527-5, ASTM D 3039, Airbus AITM 1.0007, Boeing BSS 7320,….)
• Compression test (ISO 14126, ASTM D 3410, ASTM D 695, AITM 1-0008,…)
• Compression after impact (ASTM D 7137, AITM 1.0010, Boeing BSS 7260 - type II)
• Interlaminar shear strength (ISO 14130, ASTM D 2344, EN 2563,…)
• Fracture mechanics (ASTM D 5528, AITM 1.0005, Boeing BSS 7273,…)
