Back to Basics: Materials Testing in the Automotive Industry

Each application within the automotive manufacturing process requires a unique set of testing requirements.

It’s apparent every time you get behind the wheel, take a taxi or hail a car service. The automotive industry has an enormous impact on everyday life in the United States, and it continues to affect the lives of millions. The auto parts industry in the United States is estimated to be more than four million direct and indirect jobs, according to a study conducted by IHS Markit. Those jobs require unwavering attention to quality, and as the industry continues to evolve, the role of quality is as important as ever.

Electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, hybrid-electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrid vehicles are just a few of the options manufacturers are working on. With the revolution in artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, and next-generation automotive technologies, companies must have the right instruments for analyzing, testing and evaluating materials, parts and modules, as well as analyzing data from R&D to quality control.

Materials testing plays a key role in the automotive industry. Each application within the automotive manufacturing process requires a unique set of testing requirements, be it tensile testing a seat belt, strength testing a clutch, or improving the metal in a car body. And if any product defects do occur along the way, materials testing can be used to determine when and how this happened.
