Dynamometry comprises measurements by universal testing machines (dynamometers), enabling force determination in tensile, compression and cyclic modes. These kinds of accredited testings are performed according to DIN 53504 on standardized specimens, usually of the type S2, by the topmost quality equipment from the producer Zwick. Deformations are measured by contact, mechanical and non-contact, optical strain-measurement devices with resolution of 5 µm.
