Axel Products provides testing services for engineers and analysts. The focus is on the characterization of nonlinear materials such as elastomers and plastics. Data from the Axel laboratory is often used to develop material models in finite element analysis codes such as ABAQUS, DIGIMAT, MSC.Marc, ANSYS and LS-Dyna. Testing services are also provided to examine sealing and fatigue problems, long term thermal mechanical testing and high strain rate testing. The company was founded in 1994.
