Metallurgical Lab Testing
We conduct thorough microstructural evaluations using our 50x to 1000x optical microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). These evaluations help assess the integrity of welds, joints, coatings, and plating, as well as detect inclusions and total carbon content. Our SEM is also instrumental in failure analysis, examining fracture surfaces, corrosion, wear, and contamination.

Mechanical Evaluations
We perform comprehensive mechanical evaluations during PPAP, for process control, and throughout the part manufacturing lifecycle. Tests for strength, density, hardness, and porosity are conducted according to Metal Powder Industries Federation standards.
