Access our specialist equipment and expertise.We have a broad range of specialist equipment, facilities and expertise to help you define and fulfil your testing and surveying needs. Our experts and specialist technicians can help assess your testing requirements and guide you through the process. Our facilities can be used for testing components and prototypes, through to samples from production runs. We specialise in failure mode analysis to help you improve your design and product’s reliability. We work with local and international clients to help solve their project challenges and can design bespoke equipment for non-standard tests. We offer rapid prototyping services so that you can realise and test your designs quickly. Our surveying and scanning capabilities extend from integrity monitoring of buildings and structures, through to thermal imaging to characterise heat loss, and the acoustic performance of rooms and public spaces. Our environmental testing services extend from identification of contaminants in soils and fluids to monitoring air quality as part of occupational hygiene surveys and after major incidents.

You can realise your designs and produce prototypes for marketing and functional testing rapidly, reducing your product development costs and prototype cycle times. We offer a mechanical design service to augment our 3D rapid prototyping service and ensure that you have access to a complete product design file.
XRF surveying is useful for identification, measurement and mapping of chemical contamination of soils and fluids. We also offer a range of lab -based tests for sample characterisation.
Our mobile air quality measurement and monitoring systems can be used for occupational hygiene surveys and at major incidents.
We have a range of test systems that measure mechanical strength and failure due to stress, fatigue, fracture, impact and corrosion. We also offer environmental chamber testing with temperature and humidity cycling.
Single sample to large scale industrial test programmes can be defined. We offer a full data and post-mortem analysis service that can include finite element modelling to help understand the failure modes and lead to improved designs.
We can also design and deliver bespoke test systems and test rigs for specialist testing and highly accelerated lifetime test (HALT) programmes.
We can survey and scan buildings, structures, facilities and rooms to provide accurate structural representations and monitor changes, which may for instance be caused by subsidence. We can also survey heat loss and advise on remedial solutions.
Our acoustic reverberation time analysis service characterises a room’s acoustic performance. We can advise on how to improve a room’s acoustics so that it best meets its intended use.
Use of our ground penetrating radar and seismic monitoring solutions can identify buried objects and utilities. We can also monitor the integrity of buildings and structures to identify and locate faults that may require remedial action.
The world is changing faster than ever before. The future is there to be won by organisations who find ways to turn today’s possibilities into tomorrow’s competitive edge.
Our Continual Professional Development (CPD) courses are designed to open up exciting new possibilities for individuals and organisations. By increasing skills and knowledge and introducing new ways of thinking and working we create impact in performance at all levels.
We can help your business and your people to build new skills, new knowledge and new ways of thinking. Talk to our Business Development team to discover the difference Northumbria University can make.
