NAME

Laboratory for testing machine elements, mechanisms, and lubrication

DESCRIPTION

The Mechanical Design Laboratory (DMLab) of the Faculty of Engineering - Mondragon Unibertsitatea offers a wide range of testing equipment. The combination of independent research projects and consulting projects with industrial partners provides a wide range of research topics in the areas of machine elements, mechanisms, and mechanical systems. Our competencies cover work from design conception to the build-up of prototypes, including detailed simulation and validation testing. We continuously maintain and expand this infrastructure to meet the latest requirements. The following pages highlight the capabilities and technical data of each testing facility. Furthermore, our testing infrastructure can be customized to meet all kinds of requirements. We will be glad to provide further information and answer all your questions.
