The mining engineering department is equipped with a rock and materials testing laboratory, which enables all work steps to be carried out, from the production and documentation of test specimens to their examination using destructive and non-destructive testing methods. We can carry out the following tests for you:
 

  • Rock and material testing, including the option of sampling in the field
  • Blasting technology
  • Weather technology
  • Testing of rockfall protection structures
  • Vibration measurements

 
 
 
 
Servo-hydraulic rock testing press type MTS 815

The triaxial testing machine of the 815 series is a high-precision device for performing compression tests on rock samples. It can be used to apply axial and radial stresses to a cylindrical soil sample simultaneously in order to analyse its mechanical properties under realistic conditions. This test method enables the precise determination of parameters such as shear strength and deformation behaviour.
