MATERIAL AND ANALYSIS TESTING AT BLOCKLAB


INSULATION STRENGTH

Partial discharge testing has become an essential parameter in recent years to assess insulation in electrical machines. This development is mainly due to the widespread use of frequency converters for motor control — a topic perfectly aligned with BLOCK’s expertise as a development company and service provider.

Partial discharges are generally considered undesirable because they cause energy losses in overhead lines and can lead to harmful effects from ionization in electrical components. In our certified laboratory, we can offer you partial discharge measurements up to 30 kV.


DETAILED INSIGHTS – DETECTING DEFECTS INSIDE THE MATERIAL 

The methods of X-ray analysis and 3D computed tomography enable non-destructive testing of components and guarantee early detection of material fatigue. Even the smallest defects, such as cracks or inclusions, become visible as a result of the tests. The three-dimensional imaging allows precise analysis of internal structures and helps detect manufacturing defects early. This way, you can optimize your quality assurance, reduce waste, and improve production processes — ideal for industries with the highest safety requirements.


SHOCK AND VIBRATION TESTS

In our laboratory, we offer sinusoidal vibration and broadband noise testing as well as shock testing. The following conditions apply to the test objects:

Maximum test weight up to 350 kg
Maximum impulse force up to 22.2 kN
