Laboratory, Tests & Verification

Testing and verifying

Our ramp-up management staff is responsible for making the developments ready for series production, and are thus an interface to production. As the core piece, they operate among others a universal foaming device, as well as a technical facility for material and surface testing. Thus, future projects can be planned in the pre-series phase, allowing a safe transition between customer demands, construction and series production. Every production ramp-up is preceded by extensive initial sampling.
In the laboratory area of RUCH NOVAPLAST, extensive measurements, tests and documentation of all product-related physical, electrical, and chemical parameters can be conducted.
As an additional service, tests on plastic components other than particle foams can be carried out.

Laboratory equipment:

• Thermoanalysis technology
• Climate chamber for environmental simulation of the products

• Tension / pressure testing device, up to 10 kN
• Reflected light microscopy and image documentation
• Analysis of the sieving plant
• MFI-Analysis
• Flame test chamber for a variety of flamability tests
• Fall tower
• Analysis scales, and an area for chemical resistance examinations
