Plastometrex

Plastometrex are world leaders in obtaining stress-strain curves non-destructively, and in providing fast and insightful mechanical testing solutions. Established by former University of Cambridge scientists, Plastometrex combines deep expertise in materials science with advanced numerical modelling, optimisation methods, and machine learning tools to create next-generation materials testing solutions.

We help companies, universities, and research institutions gain an in-depth understanding of the mechanical properties of their metallic components and materials in a fraction of the time and cost of conventional testing methods. Plastometrex testing solutions are based on an underlying platform technology called Profilometry-based Indentation Plastometry, also known as PIP. The technique enables full stress-strain curves and metal strength parameters to be obtained from a single indentation test in as little as five minutes.
