MATERIALS TESTING (CMCs)
Mechanical Testing
Continuously innovating and evolving.
Ceramics Matrix Composite
CMCs have been under development for high temperature application in aviation engines and gas turbines. It requires a large amount of data prior to commercial application. Kiguchi is recognized as a world leader in CMCs testing, allowing the maximum temperature of 1400℃ for the following test items.
