App Lab - SEKISUI KYDEX

For every “what if,” there’s an innovation waiting to happen
at SEKISUI KYDEX’s appLab™.

At appLab™, OEM industrial engineers and designers have plenty of room to explore—and ideas have plenty of room to grow. How much room, exactly? In our new 8,000-square-foot space, you collaborate with SEKISUI KYDEX’s manufacturing experts to solve challenges in brand new ways.

appLab™ is a unique idea lab where you can explore and achieve your vision without cutting corners and without compromise. Using dedicated fabrication tools, test equipment and technology, you can develop, refine and produce custom solutions that move your industry forward. Let’s start collaborating. Because innovation starts here.

Instrumented
Impact:

Test samples

CNC Machine:

Cutting test samples

Heat Deflection Temperature Test:

Finds the temperature at which a polymer or plastic sample deforms under a specified load

Instron Instrumented Impact Test:

Shows failure and load vs. time or deformation

Falling Dart Impact (Gardner Impact) Test:

Traditional method that evaluates the impact strength or toughness of a material

Notched Izod Test:

Studies the toughness of material which is a factor of its ability to absorb energy during plastic deformation

Falling Dart Impact (Gardner Impact) Test Samples

Chemical Resistance Test:

Measures KYDEX^® thermoplastics resistance to different reagents

Instron Tensile Test:

Applies tensile (pulling) force to a material and measures the specimen’s response to the stress
