Specimen preparation in Chennai

Precision Specimen Preparation in Chennai – ASTM, ISO, FMVSS Standards

Introduction

In the world of materials testing, accurate specimen preparation is critical to obtaining reliable, repeatable results. Whether it’s for tensile, flammability, impact, or flexural testing, preparing specimens to exacting standards ensures test integrity and compliance with industry norms. At Kiyo R&D Center & Laboratory, we specialize in high-precision specimen preparation in Chennai for a wide range of materials — including plastics, rubbers, composites, and polymers. Our expert team is equipped to prepare specimens strictly as per ASTM, ISO, and FMVSS standards, supporting a variety of industry applications.

Why Specimen Preparation Matters?

Before any mechanical or thermal test can begin, the test specimen must meet strict dimensional and surface finish requirements. Poorly prepared specimens can result in:

  • Inaccurate test data
  • Non-compliance with certification standards
  • Increased test failures and retesting costs

Our Specimen Preparation Capabilities:

Tensile Specimen Preparation:

Prepared as per:

  • ASTM D638 (Plastics)
  • ASTM D412 (Rubbers)
  • ISO 527

✔️ Precision gauge length
✔️ Accurate cross-sectional thickness
✔️ Smooth edges for reliable clamping and test accuracy

Flammability Specimen Preparation:

Prepared as per:

  • FMVSS 302 (Automotive interiors)
  • ASTM D5132
  • ISO 3795

✔️ Dimensions: 356 mm x 102 mm
✔️ Conditioning as per standards
✔️ Optional custom moulding for sample consistency

Impact Specimen Preparation:

Prepared as per:

  • ASTM D256 (Izod)
  • ASTM D6110 (Charpy)
  • ISO 179 / ISO 180

✔️ Precision notch cutting
✔️ Controlled thickness and surface finish
✔️ Ideal for both plastic and rubber-based materials

Flexural Specimen Preparation:

Prepared as per:

  • ASTM D790
  • ISO 178

✔️ Smooth surface finish
✔️ Consistent width, length, and depth
✔️ Test-ready geometry for 3-point and 4-point bending

Custom Moulding for Thickness Control:

In addition to machining and cutting, we offer custom moulding options for specimens requiring controlled thickness or specific shapes. This is particularly useful for:

  • Composite panels
  • Thermoplastics with variable flow behavior
  • Rubber sheets needing uniform density

Moulding ensures that each specimen is uniform in size and free from surface defects, a key factor for tests like tensile, impact, and flammability.
