Faster, bigger, further, bolt testing

"Faster, bigger, further." This is the motto under which the North Rhine-Westphalian testing machine manufacturer TesT is breaking records in 2021.

Keyword faster: This year, friction coefficient testing machines are being commissioned at an exceptionally high rate. Keyword bigger: There has been a clear increase in the large-format segment. Among them is an order from the public sector, designed for world record bolts of size M80. Keyword further: The internationally active company is gaining growth, especially in the Chinese market. The increasing demand in the fastener industry for testing machines of large sizes is due to international construction projects, including those in the energy and infrastructure sectors. For example, bolts are tested that are used in bridge construction or which anchor wind turbines in their foundations.
