Foundation for Design, Material Selection, and Service Life Prediction
In the “Fatigue Strength Database for Thermoplastics,” we bring together over three decades of experience to create a unique foundation for design, material selection, and service life prediction. The database identifies relationships between material, geometry, external influences, and loading, making this information immediately usable for development and validation.
The database comprises more than 11,000 tested specimens and 1,300 Wöhler curves. It covers engineering thermoplastics from various manufacturers, different additive formulations, conditioning states, varied specimen geometries, environmental influences, and mechanical loads. Standardized test documentation and evaluation ensure high comparability and direct transferability to simulation and design routines.
