Aviation: Component and materials testing laboratory, EMC testing laboratory
Testing of components and assemblies in aircraft
We connect research and industry. We support our customers in the development and improvement of safety and availability of their products. Our competence lies in the operation of a component testing laboratory as well as an EMC laboratory. We offer the conception, execution and evaluation of complex mechanical and electronic tests on components and assemblies.
Goals
TÜV AUSTRIA Group meets the highest standards of safety and innovation to the same extent. Our tests and analyses make state-of-the-art technologies safe and competitive for the market. We guarantee this as an independent testing laboratory accredited according to EN ISO/IEC 17025.
