Products and their production processes can hardly be improved or further developed in the market. Continuous quality monitoring as well as evaluation and consideration of practical experience is absolutely essential for this. In some cases, e.g., in quality assurance, an essential role is played by characterization of the materials and coatings. Use our material competency for your products: Material selection and use of processing methods Development of individual testing methods Quality monitoring through metallographic evaluation using light microscopy Determination of mechanical properties Conduction of corrosion tests Creation of test reports Hardness measurements Analyses   The following material parameters can be tested and characterized in our lab: - Joints and surface - Hardness and strength - Corrosion resistance - Coatings   We advise you in selecting materials, coatings, heat treatments: For new designs For improving existing systems and machines For the further development of methods or coatings In locating suppliers and in delivery evaluation On questions of quality assurance The costs are based on the relevant expenses incurred particularly on the qualified evaluation and documentation. We would be glad to prepare a proposal for you in this context.   Levels of examination: - Inventory, macroscopy, discussing the requirements and analyses - Separation - Embedding - Grinding, polishing, etching - Light microscopy, raster microscopy - Expert opinion, measurement - Report generation
