The 11th edition of the Fatigue Design International Conference, organized by CETIM (Technical Center for Mechanical Industries), will take place on 19–20 November 2025 in Senlis, France.
A key event in the field, Fatigue Design gathers around 300 researchers, academics, and industry professionals for nearly 100 presentations dedicated to material fatigue and its industrial applications.
In 2025, the conference will focus on cutting-edge topics such as additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, biomechanics, composites, and damage tolerance, with a particular emphasis on green economy and material sustainability.
3R — French reference in VHCF testing
MEG20 – symmetric alternating VHCF tests up to 10¹⁰ cycles
As a specialist in high-performance mechanical testing machines, 3R designs solutions for environments where material reliability is critical, including aerospace, nuclear, and energy sectors.
At Fatigue Design 2025, 3R will present the MEG20, a Very High Cycle Fatigue (VHCF) testing machine capable of performing symmetric alternating tests up to 10¹⁰ cycles.
This unique technology—born from collaboration between researchers and industrial partners—stands out for:
- Proven robustness for long-duration tests,
- High precision, ensuring reliable and repeatable results,
- Continuous improvement, driven by in-house R&D and technological partnerships, notably with E-PIEZO, a French start-up spun off from CNRS, specialized in ultrasonic technology modules and external VHCF testing services.
Why meet our VHCF experts?
By meeting us at Fatigue Design 2025, you will:
- Discover a unique VHCF testing machine—the only one of its kind in France and internationally recognized,
- Attend the presentation of the MEG20 and learn how it accelerates material validation processes,
- Discuss your specific VHCF testing needs and custom protocols directly with our experts,
- Explore practical solutions to shorten qualification timelines and ensure the long-term durability of critical materials.
Our participation in this conference reflects our commitment to bridging science and industry, sharing French expertise in a highly specialized field, and highlighting VHCF testing as a key challenge for the materials of the future.
