Third-party fatigue testing and ASABE/ISO certification for tillage, seeding, and harvesting equipment. Hydraulic pull rigs. Accelerometer arrays. Load-cell data that decides whether a component ships — or goes back to the forge.
From intake to certification — every step is documented.
Every specimen is logged before it touches the floor.
Incoming components are photographed, dimensioned, and assigned a chain-of-custody number. Our fixturing engineers study the OEM mounting geometry and design purpose-built adapters that replicate in-field boundary conditions — not generic clamps.
Fixture drawings are reviewed against ASABE EP496 before any load is applied.
████ Some fields redacted per client NDA. Full report available upon engagement.
The data is the argument. Nothing is summarized away.
Every curve below was generated from an actual test run. Raw acquisition files accompany every report.
If the standard exists, we test to it.
Calibrate holds NVLAP accreditation for mechanical testing of agricultural components. Our equipment calibration is traceable to NIST. Our staff includes licensed Professional Engineers who sign every report that leaves the building.

The methodology is documented. Take it with you.
We've published the same protocols we use in-lab. If you're writing a procurement spec or responding to an ASABE certification requirement, this is where you start.
Testing Standards Guide
30 pages covering ASABE and ISO protocols for tillage, seeding, and harvesting equipment. Includes test parameter tables, fixture specification guidance, and pass/fail criteria explanations.
