Here is some new information regarding the validation of testing software for tensile testing machines. The focus is on metals testing.
NPL (National Physical Laboratory) in the UK has prepared special data sets which can be imported into the testing software. It is then possible to automatically validate the algorithms in the software to make sure that they produce the correct results.
For more information on this subject go to http://www.npl.co.uk/materials/projects/tenstand/
If I might be allowed to mention my company (Zwick) worked together with other testing machine suppliers and NPL to develop this system, and we have already integrated it into our latest testXpert software.
I am sure that this will be very interesting to those who carry out interlaboratory "round robin" checks especially between testing machines from different manufacturers.
