The aerospace industry represents a key technology of great economic and strategic importance. Developments for autonomous and unmanned flying—Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and Unmanned Air Systems (UAS)—are currently in full swing amidst major advances in flight management and control systems. In today’s New Space Era, private companies are collaborating with established space organizations and eagerly working to develop their own rocket launch systems worldwide in order to meet the growing demand for space launch services. With a goal of leading the aviation industry into a sustainable future, the development of drive systems based on Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) in the medium term and hydrogen in the longterm is being accelerated. Existing fleets are being modernized and the demand for aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) is constantly increasing.

With testing systems for materials testing at cryogenic temperatures of -253 °C (20K) up to high-temperature testing systems of up to 2000 °C, we help our customers develop ever more efficient lightweight materials and structures. Discover our expertise, longstanding experience and in-depth understanding of applications for mechanical testing of metallic materials, fiber-reinforced plastics and sandwich composites, ceramic materials and for the testing of fasteners used in the aerospace industry. Static and dynamic materials testing machines from ZwickRoell are used by our aerospace customers around the world at all technology readiness levels (TRL), and support NADCAP accredited testing solutions.
