Full Scale Strength and Fatigue Testing
VMi’s fatigue test bench allows destructive fatigue testing within the 105 to 106 cycle regime providing valuable input to assess the residual fatigue capacity of degraded mooring chains and connectors.
A 40.000 kN test bench located at sister company Vicinay Sestao allows us to undertake strength tests on large mooring chains and connectors, either new or retrieved from the field, and thereby determine their actual strength capacity.
