Effect of Frame Alignment on Tensile Strength of Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Laminates

Effect of Frame Alignment on Tensile Strength of Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Laminates

Alignment has always been known to influence results from mechanical testing, but the effect on composites testing can be very significant. Many ASTM and ISO standards include recommendations regarding alignment, and auditing organizations mandate that the alignment is within defined limits. Ensuring good test alignment requires high-quality testing frames, grips, and fixtures, as well as the expertise to validate the alignment. Some companies choose not to align their test frame because they feel that the cost is too high and they believe that the effect on their results is minimal. Read our study that demonstrates the huge impact that alignment can have on test results and the effect that this can have on your company’s bottom line.

A Review of Current In-Plane Composites Compression Testing

A Review of Current In-Plane Composites Compression Testing

The compressive modulus and/or strength of a composite material are critical parameters for many structural uses. The factors that determine the compression strength are complex and the values of compressive strength for a composite can be much lower than values for tensile strength. One of the challenges in the compression testing of composite laminates is in understanding the various test types and standards. This white paper seeks to document and explain this field.
